Z4MC Widebody: Who did this?

I found this dude's instragram (https://www.instagram.com/sembroshti/) and I want to get the same widebody kit as him. The rears look exactly like the LB one, but what about the fronts? I did not think LB made the fronts like this

I hope he is ready for a group buy because I am about to start one. Who wants to get on board for the fronts in a group buy? I need them so I have no choice

Just curious, but what makes you feel it's ridiculous? Is it that the fenders are not smoothed into the body work or what?

I think if the fenders were smoothed in it would appeal to me more. The bolts leave it with an unfinished look. I do like the muscular appearance it gives the rear of the car though. Just my two cents.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and if folks like it for their application, who am I to argue? I wouldn't get this for my car but I can see how some folks would like it very much. Its very aggressive looking and I presume, intended for track use.

Yeah but you also don't drive you car apparently so what do you know

I would like it more smoothed as well. This looks like a DelSol hack job to me.

Few options out there

LB Kit - https://www.carid.com/liberty-walk/l...-3-wb-kit.html

Flossman Z4MC GTR - http://www.racingparts-bmw.de/start/eng/start.htm I feel like this is a good start but the front could be done better.

IIRC the OEM GT3 BMW pieces are something along the lines of $20-25K, my crazy friend inquired.

It looks like a stock M bumper with aftermarket splitter. Rolled fenders would give you 10" wide fitment but not the aggressive style you are after.

No experience with the vendors - just a link to known kits.

Are you saying that stock fenders rolled can fit 10s or this kit can fit 10s up front?

Edit: I'm doing 13s in the rear and 10s or 11s in the front. This will be one thick girl

Stock fenders rolled with fit 10" up front. A friend is running 18x10 up front with a heavy drop (track not hellaflush) but he does have custom modified control arms to allow proper alignment and articulation.

Is he on the forum? I'm interested in knowing more about his front suspension custom work.

If this would be for a track only car, it's not rocket science, I'd go the flossman gtr3 kit all the way.

It's a street car too. While I would like to get the flossman kit, it's expensive as fuck. While I'm not a penny pincher, I'm not an idiot either. For the same price I could get hundreds more HP or a car much lighter.
