Hello Nate

DO you mind doing thread on it, so more people can see it!

i am sure there will be more than 10 people willing to buy them, also depending on price, but you can definitely count on me!

Any way it'd be possible to order the M Performance steering trimmed in normal black 'steering wheel' leather (i.e. in lieu of the alcantara)?

i dont know if it is coming in alcantara or leather, but alcantara is so much nicer to touch

and if you are worried about it being worn after some time, there are people who would change your alcantara for a fresh piece and stitch it back into original 3colour, at least in UK

RoterDrache · 09-17-2013, 09:30 PM

Does anyone know if the steering wheel is heated?

I just prefer leather. First a properly conditioned non-greasy leather wheel has the perfect level of grip, I find Alcantara too grippy. Second from an aesthetic point of view it just doesn't make sense to me that the steering wheel matches the headliner instead of the dashboard. Would def snap up a leather wheel at that price.

BTW Any chance you can get us some specs on the tips?

Any recommendations who can change the alcantara to leather?

These are the part numbers for the M5 grills, only issue is I think they are for cars with night vision but I can't confirm. Good news is that they retail for 70EUR each. Cheaper than I thought they would be

That is the BMW Performance part number for the gloss black non-LCI front grilles.

I want M6 carbon splitters. Count me in!!

I have had the M stripes on my M6 convertible for over 4 months now. I'm surprised that it is now available. I have also had the rear painted spoiler and the front diffuser (M6 coupe) installed. See pics. The diffuser really helps since the front is so long.
Really like the CF exhaust tips when and if they become available.

icenbp · 09-18-2013, 09:48 AM

Hmm I see some new goodies for my new M6

fitmaster · 09-18-2013, 10:03 AM

If you are planning to install the front diffuser yourself be aware that the holes to secure it to the bumper are slotted not round. So you may want to have your dealer install it. The part is only $60 USD and believe me, its well worth it if you keep hitting parking lot curb stops.
Thanks

fitmaster · 09-18-2013, 10:09 AM

The stripes are 4 pieces (for front and back) and are precut for specific M cars. I installed it myself using a few drops of baby shampoo and water in a spray bottle. Hardest part is getting the correct angle. I use a laser line tool. A good professional squeegee would also be helpful to get any air pockets out.
Thanks

jbomb · 09-18-2013, 02:19 PM

£1100 + VAT for the steering wheel in the UK. What will the dealers charge for fitting do you think?

Neil McRae · 09-18-2013, 04:37 PM

where is the front diffuser? its not obvious in that picture?

2 hours atleast, 3 if it needs coding.

The M stripes look nice on your ride. Do you know if it is same as M5? Do you have the part no. and where did you order? How much was it?
