Interested! Im actively looking to buy one now since the audi s5 and rs5 sportback scare the crap out of me in terms of their engine reliability.

G26 - Love my new ride

I have been in the BMW family for many years. Gave my current ride (2019 X3) to my daughter for her first car. Ordered this in Dec. and got it a few weeks ago. MW with Tacora Red Leather and Fully loaded including the ZTK pkg and full/extended black out pkg.
Mods so far:
  • Full nose ppf film / door jambs / hood / fenders / door cups / rear deck / rear bumper
  • Ceramic window tint
  • Powder coat wheels - Dusted Black (Pearl Black with Silver Metallic)
  • MPerformance CF Spoiler
  • MPerformance CF door sills
  • RW Carbon CF front lip
  • Dinan Strut bars - doing powder coat red on these
Just ordered a Dinan CAI and doing some red accents on the side and rear diffuser.
I love the sensibility of the car as well as the sportiness of the drive.....not to mention it is gorgeous.

Having fun on the tail of the dragon and loading 300lb of wood from a deck we demolished.

Amazing utility in this thing and tons of fun too, not to mention 30+ mpg on the highway.

Fresh from detail and ceramic coating on the 868Ms. For the Philly crew, big shout-out to the boys at Menards Detailing in Bucks County...

which plate bracket are you using on your G26?
I used to use US Millworks but they are no longer making brackets for the new models.

I used this one Tow Hook Plate but I’ve seen others with better ones. I say that because there’s only 1 positon that doesn’t block the front sensor

Thanks for the info!!!
I bought the same plate. It was the only plate I could find. I’m waiting for my plates to arrive.

Updated Pics of my G26

Here are some update images. I added some red accents. Almost at my break in mileage. Cannot wait to be able to open her up a little more and hear that B58!

No I am not lowered. I do have the track pkg though - 19” wheels, bigger brakes, staggered setup, etc… I have the adaptive suspension as well so really not interested in lowering…I think the look is ok. The front spoiler is already pretty low!

acudaf82 your car is great inspiration for the MW M440xi GC I have on order. It looks like you got the CF rear spoiler and door sills installed at the port - is that right? If so, do you have the order codes (the 3 digit one) and part numbers for both parts?

I checked with my CA about ordering both for port installation, along with the CF interior trim, and he came back to me with a list their system allows to add that doesn't include any of the parts I want. In fact, it seems some of the options they can add to my order in the system don't even apply for the G26, like Z17 MPP Carbon Fiber Front Splitter and Z02 MPP Carbon Fiber Side Skirts that appear to be for the M3 based on a google search.

I'm guessing the selection depends on what is available at the time, so maybe the port-installed parts I want will be available closer to my delivery date? I will check with the Product Genius who gave the list to my CA.

On shopbmwusa.com, the spoiler (https://www.shopbmwusa.com/product/1...e-Rear-Spoiler) is tied to the front splitter: "Only in combination with BMW M Performance Front Attachment (PN 51 19 5A36851)". I guess you didn't have that restriction when you got yours since you have a nicer aftermarket front lip.

Just picked up MY24 G26. Traded in a MY22 G26 that had the dreadful manual seats! iDrive 8 is amazing, can’t wait for the break in period to be over and I can have some real fun!

Thanks for the comments and compliment! I love my new G26.
I did get the rear spoiler and door sills applied at the port. I did not get the front lip as I wanted something a little more substantial than the OEM one - I like the RW Carbon one I purchased much better. It fits very well and I think it compliments the front end very well.
Door sill plates - Part# ZGZ
Door sill plates - Part# 51472472520
Rear spoiler - Part# Z22
Rear spoiler - part #51195A36997

I also got the MPerformance all weather mats. The extra deep ones. They fit like a glove and look gorgeous. I did get the WeatherTech mat for the rear as I liked the way it covered the complete back area with a nice durable, cleanable mat.

Also tell us about where you sourced the red accents! They look quite good, tastefully placed.
