Thundernight Metallic G42 M240I Build (Exhaust, intake, carbon and more).

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
So with more and more people now taking delivery of their G42 M240i's we are finally having the pleasure of being able to add some extra flavour to this phenomenal platform.

This customer came in with is beautiful Thundernight Metallic G42 M420I & opted for the low line gloss black kit (front splitter & side skirts) this really adds some much needed aggression to these cars with sharp angles and fins.

MST intake, which for me is a MUST have on this platform. The sound alone makes me feel like a kid again and there is a noticeable difference in the throttle response. On top of both of these facts we have seen consistent cool temps even on track and for prolonged usage. For the price point i think this is a steal and to top it off comes with a really premium looking clear top option.

To add to the sound we also installed the Milltek cat-back system and of course deleted the OPF's to give the car the sound it deserves. The customer opted for my favourite tip finish "Ceramic Black dual tips" which I think match the car perfectly. Sound wise you get the crackles and high ringer race tones every B58 deserve.

For the spoiler we installed the V style in pre preg carbon fibre, the carbon finish is top quality and fitment is identical to the M performance option. The extra height this gives the rear end completely transforms the rear giving it some extra length and a sharper finish.

To complete the look we of course finished off with some spacers 12mm at the front and 15 at the rear to thicken up the stance.

This color looks great!

Side note: Front page and not even a full shot of the car? Front page worthy requirements have totally dropped. Just like the other day we had a front page for an m4 that got hit by a neighbor. That's front page material?

Yeah we need full side, front, rear 3/4 views. Hard to see/appreciate the mods on the car.

Thanks bro, It's a lovely colour! This post is based on performance mods more than anything on a platform that doesn't have that many. Not really a full styling run down so didn't really think a full shot of the car was necessary.

There are only a handful of these running all these kinds of mods so I'd imagine that's why people that have them would appreciate seeing it on front page 👍🏽
