Not keen on the rear spoiler (they) look like eyebrows
The wheels expose too much of the plain steel rotors, really should have M performance brake kit with an open design like that

The photos on page 1 show the car with AC1 wheels, which are cast and were designed a few years ago for the F series. I think our AC4 (flow-formed) wheels, which came out more recently and have a native 5 x 112 fitment for the G series, suit it better.

Regarding the boot (trunk) spoilers, these are a distinctively AC Schnitzer part, much like our individual front spoiler elements, that we've previously shown on the Z4.

I agree they look a bit Groucho in black, but we can't just make the same parts as M Performance - we have to offer something different, and they could be painted in body colour if you wanted.

Thanks for the reply. Design is a difficult process which pleases some and not others. The M240i is one of the few designs of late from BMW which has not been totally radicalised which is a good thing for many of us, so aftermarket parts are important
