Search harder. It's been done.

Its only the front that is using the original GC rear. M4 is Coupe, GC is 4 door. there is no way the Fender Rear fenders can fit the GC. Please correct me if I am wrong.

It will need some custom job WHIC is a pain in the arse! It has been almost 1 month we are working on mine, as custom.. Its about to finish these days..

DEtails: in my signature!

Very cool job and I'd go for the rear fenders for sure! ( I did already indeed

)

And it would be unique! And;

Yea bro you are absolutely correct. You need to custom build the rear fenders. M4 rear fenders will never fit. That is always what I meant

alan_mpower · 06-30-2016, 11:48 AM

this is with original rear fender only thing left is the pipes and diffuser and spoiler wing and widen the wheel base with spacers or new tires later on and wrap the roof in carbon

Awesome work, nice job going down that path, looks great already

PARTS@STBMW · 10-03-2016, 01:24 PM

Wow, looking great!

blake9220 · 10-03-2016, 01:38 PM

Wow, nice work!

I'm really curious what the benefit of converting a 435 GC over just a 335 would be. Come to think of it I'm not even sure why the two models exist... Is the 435 GC bigger/longer than the 335?

No motor though

Who makes those wheels on the blue M?

Look great. Well done!

Or any number of all the other things that make a car an "M".

Nice work, definitely unique, I'm sure you'll love it.

Reinforcements the fact that BMW should actually make a M4GC. Would be fantastic.

Be proud of what you've accomplished, just don't be a poser and put/keep "M" badges on the car.

Well done.

Body filler primer in the rain! lol looks nice man

mastermav · 10-03-2016, 03:58 PM

I don't understand why? If you want 4-door, wouldn't it be cheaper to buy M3? This will never be an M car, nor it will be nearly as good as one. No more warranty, the resale value is practically 0.

Don't even get me started on putting there an M badge ...

M2audioman · 10-03-2016, 06:10 PM

Interesting idea. Although, I'll never quite understand the appeal of converting a non-M to a fake M. I have to imagine it would be cheaper to just buy a used M3 at some point. Sure, it's not a Gran Coupe, but who cares? It's a proper M car...

because time and time again people like you assume cars cost what they do in the US outside the US. that is not the case. M cars become super expensive in other countries and sometimes labor is cheap to do these conversions. i like the idea of an m4 style gran coupe. the look of an m4 with a rear hatch. works for me!

thewubwub · 10-03-2016, 08:31 PM

holy hell that thing looks wide!! Not sure if its the more cost effective than just gettin an M, but it's an interesting thing build for sure! Interested in seeing the final product for sure

There is no M4 gran coupe! Thats why he is making it. I think its super cool! Too bad he could not grab a wrecked M3 and transfer interior parts and drivetrain and make it a full M car. The bodywork will look awesome anyways.

PJinCA · 10-04-2016, 12:33 AM

that is a friggin awesome build, congrats. you definitely made it look like bmw should have made an M4GC

DJKapeesh · 10-04-2016, 07:54 AM

I gotta be honest, I like the M3 hips and rear better still
