Mainly a bunch of overpriced parts, some good, some not so. The best thing they offer is the 3.91 rear diff. I also like the rear winglets and rear diffuser. Their exhaust, brakes, suspension, and most cosmetic bits aren't near the best out there, especially compared to other German companies like BBS (for wheels), KW (for suspension) and Mov'it (for brakes). Their exhaust is just a cat back system that costs what a complete header to tailpipe system should. ACS is more into cosmetics than actual performance.

If I owned a roadie I think I'd have those winglets and diffuser (even though I really don't like the bolts and ACS badge on the end of the winglet tips). The rest of their cosmetic mods are more than horrible. If you're going to go to the effort to redesign the front end, then make a completely new piece. Not just some add on crap.

*Some* ACS parts are awesome...some no so much. It's all about personal taste.

If it weren't for the wheels, this would probably be the first AC Schnitzer job on a BMW that does not suck big time.

that front bumper makes me want to punch babies.
WTF? the rims and rear bumper are nice, but everything else I'll pass on. ACS stuff is really hit & miss. Some of their stuff is great, other stuff is overpriced ricer material. |

A lot of effort and $$$ to make a beautiful car LOOK like total piece of crap. Probably a nice performance increase but the cosmetics are a disaster.
Anyone remember the movie Night Shift where Michael Keaton's character is showing off his tricked out car? That's what pops into my mind when I see all the fins, wings, moldings, etc. on a lot of these customized cars.

Germans, and not all of their stuff is crap. And most of it is of much higher quality than you can find elsewhere.
