Our favourite budget mods for an F8x M3/M4

A lot of the aftermarket parts for these cars are fairly expensive, but I wanted to showcase a bunch of parts you can use to modify your car without sacrificing on quality of the parts.



Most of these parts are sub $300, and relatively simple to install so can be a great way to make some changes to your car without breaking the bank.

What other mods would you do on a budget?

M tax is no joke. I always used to laugh it off but the price on some of these parts are absolutely ridiculous! Great list of mods that wont break the bank.

I would add gloss black kidney grilles to your list as well.

A lot of people are a fan of the de-chrome, but personally I'm keeping it full chrome, grilles badges exhaust tips etc.

Hey Matt, just to confirm are you guys running the wheels spacers 15mm front and 12mm rear? I have purchased 10mm & 12mm for my 2018 CS along with the KW HAS kit but have yet to install. And from what I have been seeing and searching is to have the bigger spacers up front, and smaller in the rear.

No we go with 12mm front and 15mm rear for a nice flush OEM+ look.
