Stumbled across these two gems in my area

Lots of money put into replicating, why not just buy an M instead.

Ironically I personally feel the 340i grille is much more attractive than the M3 grille, whereas the M4 looks better than the M440i at the front. So, a step backwards cosmetically?

And that "M4," single exit exhaust...either a modded 440, or it's a 430? LOL.

Regardless, to each their own, I suppose.

At the end of the day these owners aren’t fooling anyone. True enthusiasts know what the car is and what it isn’t. The average Joe just sees a BMW and has no clue what a real //M is anyway.

To each their own. Hey, it’s your car and if it makes you happy….

Though personally, I will never understand why if you are going to modify your car, at least do tasteful mods to your model. Don’t try to make it look like something it is not. These kits are typically bad quality and also have poor fitment and look bad.

If you actually are trying a true conversion and using high quality kits and parts, you might as well put the $$ into the real thing. It will also have a higher value when you’re done with it.
