^WHS
Bits of it are nice, but some areas like the cut-outs at the rear look like they were chopped out with a Sawzall.
And yea, those "cheek bones". The rear quarters are nice and curvy, but they just squared off the fronts?
Front must have been "designed by a man who only had a ruler" (Clarkson)

Got to hand it to them for creativity, and not to belittle the amount of work that went into it, but this is what it should look like:

(Yes. I know that's an E89. Well, to the extent that it's anything like a stock Z4.)

The ducktail is interesting. I wonder what just that piece would like on a stock Z4MC.

tikamak · 07-31-2013, 02:20 AM

I didn't like it a lot, it looks a little ricey and the body panels do not have the Z4 type of flow and elegance.

I feel like it looks like an artist got fed up with the base model wide body and just hacked through to get this. especially the front bumper.

Apologies if anyone got offended but it's just my opinion.

Not liking the front at all. The front bumper is too harsh/too many sharp angles and doesn't flow.

The rear end looks good.

JCM · 07-31-2013, 10:34 AM

I really LOVE the front actually! I think its really aggressive! Can't wait to see this in person! Great job Slēk Design!

v8z4 · 07-31-2013, 10:39 AM

The front looks Asian/Rice to me, not "aggressive". The factory wide body front end smooth/aerodynamic whereas the other is harsh/non-aerodynamic.

Lmao I called it on page 4, looks like crap. Good job, now put it back to stock and destroy the kit so its never seen again.

Jumbosock · 07-31-2013, 06:04 PM

The hatch does look very interesting. I also want to see it on a stock Z4MC. Especially the side view. A problem might be that it decreases the rear view on an already limited view.

gkjazzman · 07-31-2013, 06:35 PM

Has any progress been made on the development of the kit? I'm very interested in learning more about availability and installation.

R0ME0 · 07-31-2013, 06:37 PM

I'd be interested in the hood!

I'd agree with that!

Nate4641 · 07-31-2013, 10:13 PM

I like it

Its different, has some questionable lines, and needs paint. I would like to see more shots from different angles though.

I just wish the front was not so rice. The back isn't bad though and the rear fenders have lots of potential (for good tires).

They should have cloned the BMW race-Z front bumper.

i2ichal2dZ4M · 08-01-2013, 12:13 AM

need to see with paint instead of CF

itdnwiwbp · 08-01-2013, 09:09 AM

Judging by the earlier pics am I wrong in thinking that the CF is a wrap that will be the final finish. Sure looks like they were molding parts onto OEM panels...
