Sub'd for updates and hope it goes to plan.

So I received the Millway G80 camber plates, I don't see any obvious reasons why this would not work, I don't know when exactly I will be able to test fit this (dead middle of winter here) but it should be max in March or April.

I'll be back with my findings unless someone else tries this before me.

Its been a while but still wanted to answer your question. you can fit f8X control arm to f3X but only rwd versions.. same applies for new g8X models as well. G8x control arm would fit g2X rwd easily. however new M3/4 's has mxdrive version, so g8x mxdrive control arm would fit on g2x x-drive versions... you can't just fit rwd version control arm to x-drive...

I have been driving my f32 428i with f8x control arm for more than 50k kms... you will feel the improvement of the steering feel immediately and front cambers at front now 1.5 Degree which is great a improvement.

Any updates on the camber plates? Curious to the level of nvh if so. Has anyone here tried the G80 control arms yet?

Good news ! Plates fit and work perfectly.

Very minimal NVH increase (wayyy less than in my past M2)

Alignment will be done Monday, will let you know how the car feels finished. I have a track day next Friday also.

Have you tried Vorshlag camber plates? Or are you trying to go beyond -2.5?

I have not. I was just looking for a more OEM option.

Nice! These look like rebranded SPL FLCAs? Either way good to see G20 specific stuff.

Just an FYI, the Vorshlag camber plates are compatible with OEM spring/suspension.

I've been told that they are indeed rebranded SPL arms.

Anyone has an idea what this plastic piece is called on an M340 x drive. Recently went underneath the car and saw this crack in it. It located by the control arm

For those wondering what happened to the Turner/SPL arms, SPL let us down by producing a bunch of arms that don't fit. I had to return the arms I ordered back to Turner, and I'm now waiting for them to send me new ones. I have a feeling every set of arms they provided to Turner did not fit.

Makes sense why they aren’t even available on Turner’s website anymore.
