Evil Derboy · 01-29-2018, 05:23 PM

Anal question but if you swap out the std M6 side repeaters for vents, what will you do for side repeaters?

Looks similar but I think it’s some Chinese brand no-name kit. If you look at the shipping package he posted there’s “Asian” symbols all over and I see this kit on the distribution websites all the time. Just didn’t know they were actually decent quality.

Regardless, all "GT3" kits are all technically "unofficial". BMW Motorsports never officially made a GT3 kit for the street applications. GT3 cars are fully built race cars from the ground up. None of the actual GT3 body panels from the M6 GT3/GTLM will actually fit the street car.

Here's the M6 GT3 car:

Here's how a GT3 type car is actually built. I love this video and it's about 3 seasons old now, but it's a great way to show how different a GT3/GTE/GTLM car is from a street car.

The closest thing to a street car BMW Motorsports will actually sell to you is a M235i and M4 GT4 aero kits:

Thanks for posting video and links... interesting!

Too bad the M6 GT3 was short lived - replaced by the M8 GTE which made its debut last weekend (GTLM class) at the Rolex 24 in Daytona. I tuned in several times to get a glimpse (they had 2 of them) ... didn't win crap - but it is sweeet looking!

Tuner Motorsports is still running a M6 GT3 based car in GTD class. BMW website says M6 GT3 customer racing is still alive and well elsewhere in GT series around the world.

I think only the factory team (RLL and the European groups) got the M8 GTLM this year. This year is pretty much a lost year for BMW in this class, new chassis usually means a host of issues and BOP adjustments abound.
