M235i racing body kits

To keep some kinds of impression have you seen the blue car over in the 2 series pictures forum. I KNOW the m2 will be different in lots of ways buts it's nice to see a wide 2 without camo!

M235i Racing body kits

Nice, looking very M2-esque. I especially like that they fit the M235i Racing carbon fiber strut brace!

Thanks to those adding the link and pics, am out on the phone.

I really like the last shot at 3/4s. I think the M2 will be smoother in the panel transitions of course, still dome car pics !

I think my biggest hate with that kit is the fact that the front end is standard M235i with some obviously tacked on wide arches, the front bumper air ducts for example should have gone wider onto the arch panels.

I know the M2 won't look as "bolt on" as this though, it's fine for a racing car, easy to swap panels after a racing "nudge" etc

Yes agree the front looks awkward, the 3/4 shit might be a nearerish impression, looks mean!

I really hope it's not much wider than an M235i, the only thing stopping me buying an M3 is the size

That body kit looks amazing. I agree it needs side skirts to fill in the gap.

I love the shape of the front flares. They really are nearly box flares! Just needs smoother integration.

Looks good, but I agree with the necessity of side skirts to smooth things out. Just curious, how much does this kit cost? I would think that a M235i + the kit would be > the price of a M2...
