i'm in love with that front lip. gorgeous wheels too!

two things though:

i would much rather see a fixed wing than the arkym decklid spoiler. i was never sold on that overlay look. i dunno.

also - this car is BEGGING for beefier exhaust tips. may i recommend arqray

I agree about the sides ....they just don't work IMO.

Honestly I don't like anything about that spoiler design. It has a heavy, blocky look to it, and looks like it was transferred from a completely different car. Plus is sticks out too far back. Maybe it looks better in person

Shopping cart..............picking up the roads for dinner !!

I like the general concept......but agree that its not transitioning perfect for its size. Its a tough place to design something that flows and can find hiding transition points. I'm still studying the one I'm mocking up due to this.

Kristin.....if your watching this......your car in that first pic here is baller status IMHO.

You exaggerate lol, but thank you.


@Everyone -- thanks for all of the great feedback.

I will definitely be checking out those OEM sideskirts. Do they sit lower than the ones I have, or about the same? I dont have much clearance left.

Good to see the M-crowd has diversity!

I think it looks great. The spoiler looks better than 95% of the ones out there available for the Z4M. Chicago is stepping up.
