F30 With M Performance Parts

RickyB · 01-13-2014, 01:27 AM

Saw this at the dealer the other day. Tried getting some shots of interior but I was in a hurry and we couldn't locate key quick enough. Was inspecting the brakes and didn't know if/when this was the case, but the "drilled" holes were only about 1mm deep. Is that normal? Doesn't seem to me that it would function the same as brakes drilled all the way through. Maybe just to give the look without the function?

Very nice! But I don't like the stripe...

Agree with you. Also thought it would have been better with carbon fiber, and not the matte black, lip/spoiler/diffuser. Also, anyone have any answers on the brakes? Was really curious about the not-quite "drilled" holes.

They are dimpled rotors. Same concept as drilled but with more structural integrity.

Oh wow. Thank you. I honestly have never heard that before. My SA didn't even know the reason. And he's very knowledgable.

Don't like the stripe or the rims.
