Picked up yesterday, and is on the way. Let the mods begin!

Congrats on the acquisition!!

We just released our 21x12" version of our GT4 wheel for 325 compatibility on the F06/F12/F13!! Much akin to the M6 GT3 wheelset aesthetically, and yes Piano Black Gloss is on point!! Will have our Manual 6speed Alpine White F13 showcase vehicle, loaded up with that exact finish in the near term, 275/30R21, 325/25/R21

Pictured is a GC running a set of Brushed Tinted Clear GT4's. Dont tell the F80 crowd, but our GT4 6 series variant is just so aesthetically right, rear concavity oh so deep....

And studying mods.

I’ll be wrapping it for sure. That one is easy. Satin black.
A tune and downpipes, my neighbor has a 3 series that he had done and recommended a shop locally.
Wheels will be tough to pick but I’ll figure that out. I’ve got it down to a few. Rotiform qlb and Ferrada fr8 I think. Gloss black to contrast the satin wrap.

Main questions are on the spoiler/skirts/diffuser.
If keeping white, I would do carbon fiber. Since I’m wrapping tho, I considered saving a little here, buying gloss or matte, and getting all these wrapped as well.

Anyone do that? Any recommendations for these?

Also, it has B&O sound, has anyone added a subwoofer to this? I don’t want to change the whole system, but do want a sub. Is this possible?

Any other must have mods?

Look forward to learning from you guys, I’ll post pics each step of the way, from delivery on.

Really good looking. Is there a drop on this, spacers, or stock?

Also seems to be a spot for an M decal?

The first two photos in aforementioned post illustrate the GC on the KW HAS kit, the latter two in the sequence were taken with stock suspension. Additionally we do design the GT4 with accommodation for ///M decal, and compatible with OEM caps to preserve our OEM++ aesthetic. The wheelset is well known among the F80/F82/F87 (M3/M4/M2 respectively) community but we have recently developed an M5/M6 variant as both the F80 GT4 circuit and the F13 M6 GT3 share a common split y-spoke aesthetic. Intrinsic allowances of the F06/F12/F13/F90 make the wheel design even more dramatic in our opinion.

One may reference several pages worth of F80 community chatter in our release thread for the wheel.

Also much reading in the F87 M2 forum:

Very pleased to bring this wheel to a fantastic platform, and are proud to be bimmerpost forum sponsors! The greatest forum likely on the web, superb community!

Akin to threading the needle Its a precise recipe, but we are willing to share!!

For reference, below is a set of 21x10, 21x11 GT4's in our Brushed Tinted Dark that were recently delivered to a great client! We have set the pricing on our M6 variant extremely aggressively in the intro phase on the platform.
