M Performance parts for new BMW X3 and X4 M revealed

BMW has revealed a series of new M Performance styling parts for the X3 and X4 M - the brand’s new hot SUV duo designed to take on AMG versions of the Mercedes GLC and GLC Coupe.

Freshly available carbon fibre radiator grille surrounds, carbon fibre air breathers and new door sill finishers with carbon fibre inserts and coloured M performance overprint can now be specified on both models.

Given the X3 and X4 differ significantly in shape from the B-pillar onwards, both get different optional spoilers. The more conventionally shaped X3 M can be kitted with a large black wing on top of the bootlid, while the X4 M is now available with a pair of high gloss black aerodynamic fins, which run down either edge of the rear window.

Elsewhere, LED door projectors can now be equipped. Customers have the option of the BMW M logo or other graphics to be projected onto the floor below when the door is opened.

BMW has produced a number of interior parts too. First on the list is the M Performance Pro steering wheel. It’s a carbon-fibre wheel with Alcantara trim and carbon fibre shift paddles, and featuring a large Alcantara grip area for the thumbs.

There’s also a less extravagant M performance wheel available, this time with high-gloss carbon fibre, leather and the M Performance inscription. The previously mentioned carbon fibre shift paddles also available separately. A new option to add some carbon fibre trim elements to the gear selector arrives, as do velvet velour floor mats.

New accessories include an Alcantara and carbon fibre key case and M Performance wheel bags.
