AC Schnitzer or M sport for GC

Which one do you think will look better on a Frozen Bronze GC ? AC will change rims/exhaust/front spoiler while ///M will change rims/full kit.

Any suggestions?

M Sport looks much better
Also you can change your stock exhaust with a much better aftermarket one, just check the thread to decide which one do you like best!

I'd do M Sport, especially with Frozen Bronze. I think the look is a lot cleaner.

I like the wheels on the AC a little better but M-Sport changes more than just what you mentioned... Headliner, door sills, steering wheel, exhaust note, shadowline trim, etc... Also, the AC body kit is too much for my liking but that's just my opinion.

Southern, I'm surprised you didn't leave a 1000 word essay post on the M-Sport package lol.

Edit- if this is for a 640, then I think the exhaust note doesn't change for M-Sport.

Unfortunatly we don't have the same ///M package that you have in the US and I do agree that the AC Schnitzer wheels look better but I don't like mixing different brands.

I'm still waiting for AC Schnitzer to reply to my e-mail regarding if the exhaust can be fitted on the GC or not.

I don't like the Schnitzer wheels. In general I don't like the black inner parts and alu outside. Wheels should have one color - either all black or all alu!

Just my personal taste

I usually agree but the rims that are advertised for the GC are the first bicolor wheels I liked and now these even though I'm not a very fan of AC Schnitzer wheel design but to me It beats having the AC kit and BMW rims.
