I kinda like the kit but for those who don't like it, don't worry it will never be reality.

- They have removed the radiator exhaust in the hood and replaced it with intakes?
- The concavity on those wheels is which makes it stand out, but again without completely changing/ruining the suspension you will never be able to put such wide rims on the car.
- Aerodynamically it doesn't make sense at all, the clever features BMW introduced to lower the drag were removed and replaced by well... plastic parts .

Complete piece of ****. There's no money I could accept to install that body kit. Or any other kit to ruin this great car.

Looks amazing.

Now throw in inline-6 turbo from M4 in the back instead of the 3 cylinder and come to papa

Looks stunning, albeit not necessarily better than OEM.

But will perform a lot worse than OEM.

I would never do that to mine

I don't like it. It takes the elegant, uncluttered and futuristic design of the i8 and makes it look "ordinary". Too much aero bits here and there, the OEM design is perfect IMO.
