If you are looking to enhance the "looks" of your M8 with the possibility to also reduce weight, you may be interested in this:

https://www.manhart-performance.de/s...ir-vents?c=409

Further Manhart offers a few other options such as a carbon rear spoiler, carbon side skirts, a carbon Two-piece Rear Bumper Add-on etc.

They are expensive but definitely worth a look.

Keep in mind Manahart won't sell or ship to the USA. I attempted to place an order, the guy on the phone told me to "F @;!$& off, we don't sell to Americans."
I emailed, and their "ceo" told me they don't ship to the USA.

That’s not true my friend, I have manhart parts delivered and installed on my car and it’s in America Florida. But since COVID19 started it took them such a long time to ship it I ordered it in October and got it in March because air delivery got really expensive. So far I ve got manhart hood, trunk spoiler, blades and rear bumper inserts. I believe it’s the only M8 Competition with ManHart hood in the US at the moment.

Thanks mate appreciate the information. It surprises me however, since they do advertise the following:

https://www.manhart-performance.de/s...-payment-terms

Dispatch conditions

"The products are delivered all over the world."

Manhart are quite a renowned company and in Europe definitely a great competitor as well as alternative to G-Power. and ACS. They shoot an own goal if they really do not consider the US market from which they can/could definitely profit!

I'd imagine Manhart might be hesitant to deal with an individual in the US, but would be happy to work with a distributor or a reputable shop that they know will install their product properly.

If you're getting $15k worth of parts like Rd139 , they may make some additional considerations, but if you're trying to get a lip or something along those lines, it's likely not worth the customs paperwork to them. They make most of their money for the in shop work, I don't think they want to be a full out parts manufacturer.

Totally agree 100% if it is just one part and or two and it ain’t worth the hustle they won’t do it at the moment because of COVID19 restrictions issues which brought shipping prices really high. The literally asked if it is ok to wait until the prices drop down because it would’ve been a lose deal to them. So yeah o believe this temporary and they will be back sometime in the future .
