Wheels Boutique – BMW GTRS4 – A$$ so big you can see it from the front

Widebody and slammed are mutually exclusive. Lowered yes, but slammed like a tricked-out Honda is amateurish.

But one can see there was a lot of thought, passion, planning, late nights, hard work and a few dead credit cards were sacrificed to complete this.

Not my taste but I appreciate it.

Again, this BMW is equipped with Accuair suspension. There are three dialed in ride heights. One for when you are parked and want it at it's lowest setting (all the photos), medium where almost all of the daily driving is done, and rasied for tight turning in small spaces.

Thank you all for the amount of feedback (both positive and negative)! When we began this widebody project we knew we would be pissing off "the purists." This F82 was meant to shock & awe people, not blend in as just another BMW. Our goal was not to be just another Bimmer parked at the local car meet within a row of other Bimmers that nobody bothered to stop for. If you never take risks nobody will ever notice you. We put a lot of hard work & dedication behind this build and we stick behind our work no matter what the reaction. We're proud of what we accomplished. As proven by this thread, people have taken notice and thus our mission was a successful one.

Pretty Lame ... My comment is gone as well as many others.

How so? forum members clicked on a post.. majority didn't care for the look.. their post were deleted. what makes that a successful mission to you ?


You deleted peoples comments and opinions on this look .. if it was the mods.. still makes no sense as I actually paid you a compliment on the other vehicles I have seen you guys do.

Pretty Weak if you ask me... obviously you don't handle objection very well.

I can't stress to you enough that we have no power to delete people's comments. We pay for a sponsorship across the 4 major sections of Bimmerpost and I assure you that no special abilities are acquired with it. We can not delete nor edit a person's comment, only our own. If you feel that a comment you posted is missing you may want to speak to a moderator for an explanation, I'm certain that they wouldn't remove it without good reason.

And if you can point out an example of us not handling objection very well then I'd greatly appreciate it. I'll personally look over it and issue apologies where warranted.

I saw this car at a local car show.
It definitely stood out, still not sure if it was in a good or bad way though.
Personally, I spent much more time over the M5
Here are a few non-edited pics..

Rear wheel sunk in too much. Otherwise I can see the allure It's not something I would but you have to give some props to vendors doing things like this to market their products, go against the grain and dare to "break the mold". Could I see this car at SEMA? Absolutely.

Only thing decent I can say is that the front and rear fascia - the intent of the look is worthy but the execution falls quiet short. Plus the big hangup is the rear widebody quarter panel. The forward-slanted vent makes it looks like a disconnected piece of the body rather than a seamless/sculpted transition.

Good analogy.

Not for everyone for sure! but I like it!

Awesome work

[brad850csi]

My post got removed at some stage too and I'm not entirely sure why...but that's ok - I can imagine there were plenty of posts to remove!

I just would like to see some pictures at a normal ride height that one would drive at, similar to a normal M4 ride height or maybe slightly lower than stock, but not slammed like it is now.

I think it could look quite attractive like that!

My comment was also removed. I said "while i was glad they defied the odds ; the car was overdone for my taste" - I was trying to be nice.

Now since my comment was removed ill just say it.. That car is hideous. The rear quarter panels look oddly out of place and forced.

This car was butchered.

You may not have the right to delete posts but your moderator buddies do.

[metrickid]

Great work guys even tough it is not my cup of tea. Looks like a solid build.
But using P Zero Nero is cheating as they are so low and narrow.

[GFK007]

Painful. A car like the m3/m4 that has so much history should not be subjected to this kind of thing.

I beg to differ..with all due respect, taking risks has nothing to do with people noticing you, at best it's half the battle..... and if your goal is to blatantly be different' than it's not risky at all. Bottom line, uniqueness and looking good are two different things... it's awesome when you can nail both, in my humblest opinion, you haven't nailed the looking good part at all.

Best of luck and thanks for sharing.

Moderators do have that right to remove comments but we have no relationship nor affiliation with them.

Front of the car looks stunning but the rear meh:

[RussianPete]

rims are nice, but thats about it.

[Maddict3]

I personally think it looks great.

[myzmak]

Are you sure they said 'couldn't be done' as opposed to 'shouldn't be done'?

[Needsdecaf]

Wow, this is just so hideous it's just......

Ugh.

I used to buy Max Power back in the day. This isn't innovative. It was done 20 years ago to POS Vauxhalls in England.

[Ever.]

I knew I've seen this kit in person. Last year, SEMA 2014.

[wigaster]

I think you guys did a nice job with everything but the rear quarter panel. I haven't seen wide body kit yet on this car that executes that area nicely. I think thats a testament to how difficult the rear part of the car is to expand and still maintain a proper aesthetic proportion. Otherwise great concept and execution. Kudos to you guys!
