Nope...lol.
At least its a start though. Get the ball rolling and remind vendors that THERE IS A DEMAND for such products.

I think the car is fine for racing but as a car that doubles for street driving, the fit and finish has to be improved. I don't think anyone is intending to sell the modification. This is a one of a kind race prepped 1 series?

Fine car i would replace intrax by moton though. Moton has lot more experiance in the newer bmw series. Moton worked with bmw motorsport in the E90 wtcc has lots of testing done.

I have tested both moton was way better.

I get the impression from the title "TUNING RACE CAR" that it's a highly modified track/street/project car, but not built to race in any sanctioned race series.

In BMW Club Racing, with the proper safety equipment (Fire system, etc.), a car with those modifications (due to the body parts and lexan windows) would have to race in Modified class in either A-Mod or B-Mod due to the turbos.

Our car is built to stock class rules, so we are waaay heavy, but I'd bet if we built our car to BMW CR prepared class rules, we could take it.

I agree, the modbardgains CF front end assembly has a far better fit, imho, just add the new/to come vorsteiner cf hood to that front and then do a custom rear

I'll agree with you on that...now my Q. Is anyone else actually liking that black stripe on the side? Don't think I would do it because I want my car to remain subtle...but I actually like that stripe

Very Nice!
I always thought the 1er looks a bit skinny, the wide body kit certainly fixes that. Makes the 1 look much more aggressive and 'powerful'.

I definitely agree. Interesting concept, poorly executed

they just need to mold the rear fender more. Other than that, the fitment seems decent.
