What did you do to your G20 today?

Mashour · 01-08-2025, 11:05 PM

Bought a used OEM g80 m3 carbon fiber spoiler off the forums and got it polished installed today on my 25 m340. Nothing beats OEM quality. Sorry for the dirty car I’ll take better pics once I get the car washed.

well it looks OEM. so if your car doesn‘t have a OEM recorder I would def recommend.
the slight downside would be sometimes it is hard to check the plate number.

What's the highest resolution/framerate? Does it cause issues using CarPlay wirelessly because of using WiFi for the camera? Can you post some sample videos like 10sec long how recording looks during day and night? Thank you sir.

To match the carbon fiber interior from factory, added CF steering wheel trim from infinite autowerks and CF magnetic paddles.

Love shifting manually now, the paddles feel very satisfying. Going for a catless downpipe next.

CF looks great on silver. Well done!

Picked up a set Burger Motorsports Front and Rear Wheel Spacers and Studs, went with 13mm/15mm, I'll be installing them this weekend

Okay, I’m envious. I want that car, but it’s not offered for sale in the U.S.

Installed knee pads.

Took a month and a half to arrive from Germany. Nice improvement on the interior.

Elderado82 · 01-17-2025, 04:07 PM

drwankel open pore wood trim is my second favorite next to carbon fiber. I'm really thinking about getting the knee pads. Do you have a link to them?

chutoy · 01-17-2025, 05:29 PM

When your OCD kicks in and the temps finally rise above freezing in NYC for a hand wash as there’s no brushless car washes near me

If you want to save a bit, sets come up every week or 2 on eBay. They're about $250USD each new, I got a used set for around $300 shipped for both. Search for G80 M3 knee pad or G26 knee pad.

Installed mine 2 weeks ago and it's a small but very worthwhile upgrade. Feels like it completed the interior.

A couple small spots of ///M color, and a bit of practicality.

Any BMW dealer can get them, it just takes time since they have to come from Germany. I got mine from getbmwparts.com. Be aware that BMW says these are not compatible with a g20, but it absolutely does work. Factory fitmet says they are compatible with a 2 Series, M2, a 4 Series, or 4 Series Gran Coupe (no m4 as the M4 came with alcantara here)

There are a few different options for these. In my case, I wanted the factory black g20 leather, with the blue stitching, as that is how my car is equipped. The leather version also has more padding than the alcantara version used in the m3/m4.

The part numbers for that config are:

51-16-7-911-033
51-16-7-911-035

They don’t fit on the LCI.

altspacen · 01-19-2025, 07:50 AM

I bought one!

Left the Audi 4.0T community for a sporty drop-top. The midlife crisis is real.

Do you know this for sure? From what I’ve read on other threads about this specific mod, it’s all the same.
