VRS Aero Side Blades Carbon Fibre for F06

Im about to buy these for my M6 GC, I really like the look although they cant show me pictures on a GC but they say they will fit. Anyone seen them? Should i go for it ? £2.4K plus fitting, so not cheap but seem a quality product (Vorsteiner part no 6002BMV).

If its authentic Vorsteiner then they can't show you on an F06 because they don't exist. Vorsteiner only made them for the coupe so it will be short when installed on the Gran Coupe.

Thanks again for the advice - it seems a reputable dealer in the UK working for some big brands - ill be sure to ask them again to justify themselves - see below. Really appreciate the tip...

Agreed. Those would be 20% short at least by the pics

I’ll check out their front lip too to see how that looks. Can you post pictures of yours when you get it. It’s a lot cheaper than Vortsteiner although ill get hammered with taxes when it arrives in the UK from the USA but still good value. Thanks again and great tip about the 1x1 to match the roof - see that’s a special order - will be interesting to see how much more that will be. Cheers

Sure, to clarify I ordered the front center lip that sits in between, 1x1 matches the roof, my grilles, the factory rear diffuser, and my mirrors. Extra charge was around $80 i think, of course - much smaller piece than what you are looking at

Thanks for that and just seen that lip on their site - it’s a neat option. Ill consider that too or maybe the side skirt from them and the Vortseiner VRS Aero front lip. Lots to research. Thanks again...

Here is some pics of mine I bought from RW Carbon over a year ago, fitment is good very easy to install, no 2 sided tape needed ,you remove the rubber flaps underneath and use those bolts to fasten the carbon lip
