New BMW M Performance Accessories for 1M, M3, X5M and X6M. Debuting at Frankfurt
BIMMERPOST NEWS BMW M Performance Stripes Announced for 1M, M3, X5M and X6M Press Release: The intriguing character of BMW M cars is further emphasised by the BMW M Performance range of accessories. These complement those available for the BMW M3 and include new products for the power train, the suspension, aerodynamics and the cockpit and have now been extended to include other models. Wing mirror covers and a rear spoiler are available for the BMW 1 Series M Coupe. These accessories are manufactured from carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP), handmade by BMW. In addition, an eye-catching BMW M Performance kidney-shaped radiator grille is available in a black, high-gloss finish. The BMW M Performance range of accessories for the BMW X5 M and the BMW X6 M allow the driver’s own distinctive personality to shine through. For both models, 21-inch BMW M Performance light alloy wheels in double- spoke design, a BMW M Performance carbon front splitter and a front grille in black are now available. In addition to the BMW M Performance rear spoiler and the BMW M Performance tail fins in black, model-specific BMW M Performance side skirts underline the dynamic elegance of the BMW X6 M. Perfect control and an authentic racing feel are provided by the BMW M Performance steering wheel, which is available for the BMW X5 M and the BMW X6 M. It has an Alcantara cover and a rim that is designed with a flat section at the bottom. In addition, it sports three-colour M stitching and a centre marker at the top in racing blue. The BMW M Performance range of accessories has now also been complemented by an attractive new innovation in the field of design. The BMW M Performance side stripes for the BMW 1 Series M Coupe, the BMW M3 Coupe, the BMW M3 Convertible, the BMW X5 M and the BMW X6 M refine the distinctive appearance of the BMW M, adding an exclusive sporty accent to the vehicle.

21 inch rims?? So now BMW is turning the X6 ///M into an Escalade? While you're at it BMW, why don't you include people's names written in diamonds. It'll add even more 'bling'. ///Marketing at it's finest.

So, what is available for the power train and suspension??? Okay, I'll be the first to say that the stripes look stupid. I already have the black chrome kidneys on my car - they've been out for a while. I'll need to talk to BMW NA and see who writes these press releases!

If I add these strips to my non-ZCP M3 will I finally be as fast as a ZCP car?

Not much of a Press Release if you ask me.

It is actually not surprising that BMW is doing this... I mean look at their special edition cars, majority of them are cosmetic.

Anyway.. not a fan of these stripes. Some of the custom work done on this forum with subtle M stripes near grilles etc have been much nicer.

Compare these stripes to the graphics they used on the E36 M3 lightweight. What a joke. Still wondering if they really announced any performance stuff for the M3 here.

At first I thought "OOOH, a Performance part I can add to my M3 without voiding my warranty".
And then I thought "Wonder what it is." And then I thought "Hope it's something good - like a supercharger!" Right here is where I read the article. And now I think " Weak sauce BMW. Way to ruin my evening." |

I wonder if this announcement is the delay on the availability of the new M PERFORMANCE STEERING WHEEL II? Meaning they will become available after announcement at the Frankfurt show next week.
