The new body kit from Khyzyl Saleem for the F80...

I like Khyzyl's kits and I've been hoping and praying that he makes one for F80...he's apparently getting one and is making a kit for it...it might be a one off but I hope he sells this kit...Thoughts?


His Facebook!

Hard pass. Why mess up one of BMW’s best M3/4 designs?

I always thought the point of a wide body was to fit big rubber. With the f8x you can do that without butchering it so what's the point?

To each his own, I guess. I'd like to see the full kit in good light but I think the front adds to what's already there and makes it better.

I mean, I think body kits are also for looks not just for tire widths but you bring up a decent point. I like it for looks and not for function so...

I see the complete opposite. Correct, styling is subjective. The look will change once a hood seam is added and it’ll be difficult with real parts to properly align the multiple raised details on both sides of the hood seam. A light impact on the front bumper will cost a fortune to replace, assuming you can even get a single replacement part for the kit.

The lower airdam is shaped the same way as the non M models, it looks like a 435i front with added width.

I don’t hate it, but it’s not really my bag.

It's a knock off Mclaren P1.

It’s got some nice elements but put together the car looks cross eyed.

I think maybe if we kept the LCI headlights, it would look better. I'm really digging the hood and the downturned front. Those elements are really cool looking to me. I know it's not everyone's bag, his designs are pretty dramatic, but I thought it looked cool and wanted to share it! Haha!
