The RKP M6 front lip is here!



RKP continues a tradition of flawless fit, incredible surface finish, and the most carefully plotted designs in the industry with their M6 front lip.

The brand new M6 front lip was designed with extreme attention to detail, and special care to not only maintain but also to continue the original BMW body lines and design language. RKP also worked hard to design this lip for excellent drivability- placing the lowest point of the lip no further than the lowest point of the original BMW bumper.

The RKP M6 front lips are available in 1x1 plain weave, 2x2 twill weave, or any number of custom weave patters, along with matte and gloss carbon finishes. Each lip is hand built from 100% carbon fiber with no additional filler materials used.

Please contact an IND representative for more information!

Aesthetics, and the advantage of not having to worry about ripping it off after going through every speed bump like other front lips.

It's nice and simple looking. Vorsteiner still looks the best IMO but there is no way in hell I wouldn't rip it off within a couple weeks with how low my car sits. Something like this would be much more suitable for my car.

You guys are harsh. LOL! If you keep the stock rear diffuser (which is also barely noticeable) and keep the car simple, I think this suits the front to keep that similar theme. I think it makes sense for those that go this route and like that someone created this option. Nice job, IND!

I think the grilles just have vinyl decals laid over. I've seen them for sale in a lot of places, including eBay.

We offer the painted ///M stripes as a $75 option with any matte or gloss black IND grille set.

Thanks! Functionality was key when designing this new lip. The front end on the new M6 is much lower than the F10 M5 and most owners are already the scraping lower black splitter. We wanted a lip that could be used in the streets of Chicago/LA/NYC and at the track without having the driver worry about cracking it.

Add Miami to that list. Would be great here. Seems like there's a pothole epidemic going around.

Are you already hitting the black lower BMW plastic splitter? The RKP lip sits above that factory part.

I think it looks crooked to you because of the white cross hanging from the rear view mirror, but it looks straight to me in relation with the hood roundel.

I was referring to the actual lines and not the centering. The lines look wavy and not smooth and straight. Do you see that or am I just going crazy? Lol.

Oh yeah, they are wavy as f*ck! But I think it's a design decision. Kinda like emulating the wind or something. I dunno.
