Nice! Out of interest, where do the grilles go? Is it just a mesh that leads to the inside of the skirt? I just worry that it'd fill with muck? Or is it a plastic grille that doesn't go all the way through?

I have the BMW Performance Suspension on mine and I really like it.
Are the holes in the BMW Performance side skirts functional? Do they redirect air to cool the rear brakes? Or what are they there for/what do they do? |

I will order the Bilstein b8. I will mount them with the Eibach ProKit springs in order to have the B12 kit (or named Performance² too). This kit seems to be a bit better than the BMW Perf' suspension but lower the car the same.
Not at all ![]() ![]() Before avec the Stage 1 chip, I drove like an old man ![]() Now I have more power, I drive muche more faster and I have a less important consumption : 5.5L/100km (42.77mpg). I tried to drive like I drove before and I reached 4.8L/100km (49mpg) ![]() I really would like to have another motor, but I can't ![]()

Yep, the holes go from the outside of the skirts to the inside and you can or not fix the plastic stuff sold with them
![]() Without the stuff in plastic, the hole will be empty and there could be some dirt inside but it is open to the underside of the car ![]() Here is a pic with my plastic stuff and side skirts mounted on the car ![]() ![]()

Are there any performance benefits to the BMW Performance front bumper? Does it provide for any additional brake or oil cooling? Or is it strictly cosmetic?
