Measure the diameter of your new 22 mm bar. A thick coating (1.5mm) on a 20 mm nominal thickness bar could make it measure out at 23 mm. If this is true, I would expect your new 22 mm bar to measure ~25 mm.

hmmm... did they change the diameter in later (LCI) models?
if so, is the GT4 one still stiffer due to thicker wall thickness or different material?

or does this mod not make sense in a 2012 M3?
