G26 i4 upgrade guide. The beauty is the beast.

Since this baby was launched, there has been a lot of demand for parts, but not as much supply. As it becomes more common to see it on the street, however, things gradually change as well. Striving for a little individuality can be a healthy hobby, as long as you can afford it.
The owner of the G26 i4 eDrive40 came to me to get some genuine upgrades on his ride, and so we started this journey which we tried to document to the best of our skill. Scrolling further these are some of the upgrades you'll see:

- M Performance brake kit
- M Performance 20" 868M Night-Gold Wheels & tyres kit
- M Performance carbon fibre side mirror components
- M Performance carbon fibre front lip
- M Performance carbon fibre rear spoiler

Just want to add a small note, and say that the wheels are absolutely gorgeous. This particular color combination works so well, that we couldn't help let out a synchronized "wow". As for the tyres, we also installed and activated the Tyre Pressure Monitor system, because this model came without it. Here we go:
