Modified M8s

I’ve attached a few photos of my M8GC build which is about 95% done. I’m just waiting for my custom hood to be delivered. Looking forward to see some of the other M8 builds.

Drone is very subjective but to my drone sensing ears, I hear nothing but roar upon demand.

It’s a custom from azaautowheel. At the time of my order Gpower didn’t have their wheel released yet. I do have Gpower’s engine tune though.

Gorgeous ride! What kit is that? Would also be curious to know the offsets and specs on the wheels as fitment is perfect!

Maxton Design---

Ultra Glossy
Ultra Breakable
Ultra Cheap (209 bucks)

Disclaimer- this is lip was not available for the M8 when i got (I got an M850i lip) and we had to do some minor adjustments outside of the naked eye to get it to fit.

But its just perfect for me, I can damage it, trash it, and replace it for cheapppppppp

Great upgrade. Top of the line. Steering is on the stiffer side. Suspension is spectacular though and drop is perfect.
