Video: Verde Mantis F80 M3 with OE GTS and Carbon 1.5 Aero

[Imran@Evolve]

You may have seen our F80 M3 sporting a GTS style bonnet and OEM M4 GTS front lip in previous videos, but in the pursuit of speed we removed the splitter at VMAX, and decided the exposed carbon fibre didn't suit the Verde Mantis as well as it did on the M2 GTS.

With an OEM GTS bonnet to also be fitted to match the OEM GTS front lip we worked on the rear of the car, with a new Carbon Fibre 3 piece diffuser from Carbon 1.5 to fit, and some reflector deletes from Acexxon to complete the look, matching our F90 M5 and F87 M2 GTS.

This means that the project is almost complete exterior wise, and that we can focus on increasing the power with V2 of our development hybrid turbos, which will hopefully be ready by March for the next VMAX 200 event.

Need a much better price on that diffuser to consider it. It is by far the most expensive diffuser out there

Its one of the few that wraps around and actually fits properly with great quality carbon too.

Those rims need to go, imo.

Evolve: super job. Quality and design looks first class. The extra effort is appreciated.

And, there’s nothing wrong with that wheelset. Geez...

Looks much better with the oe gts hood vs the rep hood

The whole exposed cf hood thing is so played out now

Keen for the upcoming vids of performance upgrades

Thanks and agreed on the wheels. Have only have had positive comments on those before but you can't please every one

I much prefer it this way due to the colour of the car being so bright. It works on our M2 as you have to look closely to see the difference between the carbon and Mineral Grey.

Working on the performance upgrades over the next few weeks.

Awesome.

What are the wheel & tire specs?

You guys still planning on releasing the exhaust system?

Honestly, I bet a ton of people would even pay for just the CF/Titanium exhaust tips, for the time being. I definitely would (if you can get them down to something closer to 90mm, 100 is a bit too large for me) and fit stock exhaust!

Yes will be releasing in a few weeks. Don't have plans for just tips at the moment but may look into it.

You're a little late to the party to be increasing the M tax by that margin on a diffuser.

There are several options already at market that fit well and wrap around.
