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.

Don't like the stripes -- too heavy.

[marcel b]

stripes are ugly like this... missed chance

[Advevo]

A front splitter for the 1M would be nice. Like the one which is on the 1M safety car.

[James T. Kirk]

The stripes look a bit 1970's "gay pride"... not that there's anything wrong with that!

[pinmagic]

Thumbs down on the stripes.

[UNO///M]

Blah, I was hoping for a performance package and a exhaust system. What a teaser. Two thumbs down.

Agreed, two thumbs DOWN. I thought BMW was trying to increase there role in performance upgrades. Some ugly stripes and few carbon bits is it? Seems to me they are missing the boat.

[pearlwhites]

I'd like to see some side skirts that are more aggressive along with a csl type bootlid. Those decals look way too big!
