I've got a semi

Hi all. I've had my Yas blue M4 for a little over three years now, and while I really enjoy the car I am (semi) bored. This is largely by the way it looks, rather than the driving experience etc. I've got the bms stage 1 (which is awesome) but other than that the car is stock.

Would do you recommend to spice up our love life? I am thinking carbon splitter and side skirts and maybe an alcantara wheel might freshen things up.

Suggestions and any pics of the carbon splitter on standard suspension greatly appreciated.

Tom.

If you're truly bored of the car, mods will be temporary relief and money that will be hard to recoup. Perhaps a new car is in order.

This is the one! Thank you. Wheels booked in on Monday to go from silver to your style. Got pics with the new front splitter?

Not the best pics as I only got it on Sunday and didn’t have time to wash the car unfortunately but hopefully of some help, it’s the ksb front splitter, bargain at £100 (even cheaper if you contact them via email for best price). Cheap enough to replace easily if it gets damaged.

Big thanks to everyone for commenting. So far I’ve had the wheels refurbished and added the three piece front carbon. Absolutely loving it!

It's worked. Completely in love again. Next will be carbon mirrors and side skirts.

Thanks to carbonfactory for the three piece front splitter

hi guys, great read

I have exactly same issue with my Yas Marina M4, the windows are tinted and has the carbon roof, so I just feel the chrome side vents and front grill etc need glossing black.

Then the lip at front I am unsure about, I might just have sprayed the splitters, or buy Gloss ones.

Back spoiler unsure, but diffuser definitely will do.

Wheels look good how you have done them and will do the grill as well.

It makes the car look a lot meaner and gives a new look

appreciate the post and replies,

thanks
Nathan

Hi Tom

Any help would be much appreciated
