Blacklines?

Should we expect any blackline taillight options from BMW for the f22? I had some on my 135i and loved the look, especially on a black car.

They don't do it often which is why I'm not sure if they will. Even the whit lines like they did on the f10 would be cool but i don't know if we will see anything from them.

Nice . Mine was ER for both pipes . Wagner competition for IC .

Had an issue with fitment for the ER charge pipe into the Wagner IC .

But I guess in your case , all of the ER products should fit together with ease haha . There are good reviews on that ER intercooler too 👍

Pretty good !

Actually, our stock setup with a drop-in K&N filter is good enough as well.

You don't need the m3 one if you look at the m235i racing engine it had one that fits the 2 series.

hmmmm we all hope so.

Then again, considering BMW's modular approach of fabricating parts, it also kinda make sense for the chassis (of the M235 Racing) to be modified to suit the M3 strut .

If you look closely at the two engine bays, some work was required to make it fit... removing of parts, rearranging of others, probably some extra mount points fabricated.

Yea I saw that, it looks like there is a brace on top that needs to be added, more or less what I meant was unless they are the same I thought the m235 racing one would fit more properly than the m3/4 one

Well , either way, it probably still can be installed without customizing a bracing for the front two adjacent mounting points .

So although the function is lost but damn, Its still a darn good upgrade in aesthetics .... At least. haha
