BMW Performance has released on the United states market a new range of BMW M3 carbon body parts which will go on sale this month. The new carbon fiber aerodynamics components are developed for all current versions of the BMW M3 - the Coupe, Sedan, and Convertible.
The new BMW M3 carbon body parts range includes a new rear deck lid spoiler, mirror caps, and front splitters. The new rear spoiler however, cannot be applied on the M3 Convertible. The BMW M3 carbon body parts range are made from an ultra-rigid carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) composite material which is the same as the one used for the roof of the car.
Each item in the new BMW M3 carbon body parts
range has been tested in the company's Munich-based wind tunnels to ensure they will work well with the other aerodynamic components of the vehicle.
The price of the new range has not been unveiled yet.
BMW Press Release:
BMW of North America has announced three BMW Performance aerodynamic accessories for the M3 Coupe,
Sedan, and Convertible. The new rear deck lid spoiler[1], mirror caps, and front splitters are constructed of ultra-rigid carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) composite material, matching the standard CFRP roof panel of the M3 Coupe. Each component is shaped based on advanced research conducted in one of BMW’s Munich-based wind tunnels. This ensures compatibility with the overall aerodynamic “signature” of the M3, serving to reduce lift and minimize drag. Such characteristics are appropriate to enhance the vehicle’s high-speed stability while maintaining fuel efficiency.
Like the CFRP roof panels on the M3 Coupe and M6 Coupe, BMW Performance components made of carbon fiber have been climate and durability tested during development to ensure long-term quality. Each component is finished in a special clear coat laminate to reflect ultraviolet radiation. BMW Performance accessories feature a 2-year / unlimited mileage warranty. If installed before a customer takes delivery of a new M3, the BMW Performance accessories will share coverage of the 4-year / 50,000-mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty. The new BMW Performance aerodynamic accessories are going on sale this month at Authorized BMW Centers.
