Gents, where's the love?

The BMW M3 GT4's come with the spoiler and rear wing from BMW Motorsports... and it is completely functional...

Some of you are big fans of IND's latest build...

The wing is on an m3 gt4..I would say it's function over form in this case. For those who want every inch of performance I guess the wing is a good option(Martin_D's car for example). Besides, the owner of that GT4 also has a frozen grey M3 with nice upgrades, so it wouldn't see the street much if at all.

If you guys take our cars out on a big banked track with a Nascar type turn, the rear end gets really jumpy and you see the DSC light flashing once in a while saving your bacon. I wish I had a wing in those situations.

Actually I am surprised how quick the pictures of my GT4īs rear end came up here.
I only can say: "This set up does help a lot to catch the loose rear end of the E92!"
Well, some like it - some not, thatīs just the personal taste. Since this car is made for track, I have no problem that form follows function in this case.

Anyone know how much downforce the GT4 wing produces?

Oh and have to wonder if a lightweight exhaust upsets the balance of the car at high speeds.
