Damn car keeps getting better and better! It's a shame hearing about the lip fitment but it definitely looks great in pics!

Always appreciate your feedback! and yea, but for the money compared to the rest im not that mad or surprised. can't speak for all his lips but it does seem like the fitment on the gts or gt4 lines up a lot cleaner.

Nope, the GTS lip fits like crap also. From my experience, very few knockoff lips really fit well. Mostly people just run with it because its cheaper than the real deal.

After running 2 aftermarket lips, Im tired of the fitment and currently am waiting on the SUPER aggressive Karbonius GT4 lip.

LOL nice man! judging on how long this one lasts definitely plan on going to a much lighter and hopefully chassis mounted lip next time around

Thanks. And... why yes, carbon fiber plenum will most likely be my first mod.

5.2.2022 Update: Maintenance completed. BMW replaced the spark plugs and did an oil change.

8.8.2022 Update: Maintenance completed. BMW replaced the trottle actuators, thermostat, a front sway bar bushings, and two ignition coils.

11.25.2022 Update: Happy Black Friday to me. Thanks to AUTOCouture for the best price in town! Install to come hopefully next week when I find some time. Until then, enjoy the pics of such a beautiful carbon piece.

11.29.2022 Update: Finally got around to installing the new plenum.

The added engine noise is great. Night and day difference? No. Noticeable increase in volume and tone? Yes. Would I buy it again? Probably. The S65's high RPM-song is part of what makes this car special. This mod, although ~$2500 retail, is a great way to really accentuate one of the great parts of an already great car - the ITBs! Oh, and did I mention, it's a beautiful under the hood piece.

Next up - the filter box cover. After installing the other parts it just makes something look off... and it's the plastic

<-- under the hood revvage

9.19.2023 Update: Replaced the Bank 2 VANOS sensor. Idle was a bit rough and logs showed valued slightly out of range. Problem remedied by 20+ year BMW master tech. Oh, and I added some under hood bling: Future Classic Oil Filter Cap in “Ferrari Red.” Bet a matching unit from FC for the power steering reservoir would complete the look nicely.

Perhaps I’ll buy that next.

Or sell the car??? I drive it only once or twice a month…
