Post BMW Z4 by DStyle Tuning







The new BMW Z4 Roadster was revealed to us earlier this month, and is yet to be unveiled to the public but that hasn't stopped Germany's Dstyle from releasing new enhancements for the current generation model. The new aerodynamic styling package comes in two versions: Z4 CS for the Coupe and Z4 RS for the Roadster.

The styling is inspired by the world of motorsport and will be limited to just 100 units, it includes a new hood, a revised set of doors, fenders and tailgate along with a set of lightweight forged 19in alloy wheels and sports tires.

The whole kit is available for $8,900.

I actually like it, except for the yellow embellishments.

Otherwise, the body kit looks tight!!!

I think this looks great. The original car has too much hard edges and creases, however I like the kit on this car. Nice color scheme also.

So if I order this thing, does it come with a sheet of stickers that I apply myself???
That rear bumper makes it look like an X3 though

I agree with the hard top thing... makes it look like a Beluga whale.

I've always hated that look, convertibles with hard tops. Not foldable hardtop convertibles but like this a hardtop cover. Especially if the car comes as a coupe. I guess some people want a topless car but can't live with the canvas look.
Why didn't they just mod a Z4 coupe?

Too aggressive for your typical hairdresser.

As if the Z4 doesn't have enough conflicting and odd lines already. Hey, let's make even more lines and criss cross them and maybe it'll look better! Oh no, now it looks like a shoe with too many stitchings!

Love the Satin/Matte black paint though!

Not a big fan of the Z4, but the kit looks tight. Lose the yellow embelishments and it could be a real winner.

looks like a dropped Z4 with M6 wheels to me. Nothing that moving IMO.
