Christmas has come early - well for the car atleast
I told myself that I'll take it easy for a while but here we are with 2 more changes coming to the car soon. Hard to say no to a bit of BF discount! Maxton Rear Side Splitters in Gloss Black. I opted to go for the F90 ones - comparing them to the G30 ones, the F90 ones were a bit a flatter having a lower profile. I think these will finish off the side of the car nicely and go well with the existing side ext's. I also purchased an MST intake. I was debating this one for a while but with 15% off I thought why not. I have heard a 540i with this on and sounds so much better then the stock intake. I intially looked at the BMS and Arma Speed ones but I heard alot of positive comments from people having MST on their F series cars. I heard earlier this year they were releasing one for the G series cars - this made up my mind on which one to get and it would be best to wait! Looking forward to getting these bits on as soon as it stops raining and the weather is bearable to be outside for more then 5 mins!

Do you have a link for the reverse bulbs & the spacers? Also, do they come with bolts or is that separate? I've got the 20" alloys but RWD rather than xDrive I've previously got the bimecc ones Thanks Last edited by shwrb; 12-14-2021 at 03:09 PM.. |

Sure the links are below: Bulbs - https://www.horizonleds.co.uk/bay9s-...e%20led%20h21w They sell them as singles, so remember to add 2 to your basket (I nearly made the mistake of only ordering 1 as I assumed they came in pairs) Spacers - 15mm Eibach: https://www.autodoc.co.uk/eibach/12832088 I had to buy 40mm wheel bolts separately. I checked with Eibach and they confirmed that 40mm bolts are good for 10mm, 12mm and 15mm spacers. These are the ones I got: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/123342083919

here's the link: https://www.mst-performance.com/products/bw-g5401 Use MST2021 for 15% off the price. I did get hit with a DHL import charge of around £50. They ship them out from Taiwan - kind of took away the discount but oh well!

In the picture, the top ones are the F90 and the bottom are the G30. On the F90 one the front bit is higher then the rear section, where as on the G30 ones, the rear section is higher then the front bit - makes it look like there's another level almost. I've test fitted the ones I have and they sit much closer to the bumper and flow better with the side splitters in my opinion

Rear Side Splitter Ext's fitted...
Finally got round to fitting the rear side splitters I ordered a month or so ago. As mentioned previously, I felt the F90 ones fitted better and it was what I was looking for to match with the side extension's on the car already. Secured with some 3M tape and a couple of 25mm coach screws each side.

Do you know if yours were RHD? I know they also do LHD caps which are slightly different but look almost identical. Mine are the SSDD Motorsport ones but I got them second hand on eBay. https://www.ssdd-motorsport.com/bmw-...mirror-covers/ Sterling Automotive do some at a very reasonable price. I have their bodykit and is very good quality, so I would expect the mirror covers to be just as good. https://www.sterling-automotive.co.u...s-g30-g31-pair Hope this helps

Thanks for this. Re RHD - that's what I thought too. In fact the seller mentioned they could have sent me LHD by mistake. The markings inside suggest they're LHD but they're insisting they are not. I'm not convinced - think they're just fobbing me off. Glad you mentioned Sterling - saw these too when I did a quick google. For that price I was going to question the quality but if you've bought from them already I'll trust your judgement. Might go for these! After I return these others first. Thanks again! Much appreciated! |
