Jason, a proud owner of a BMW 1M and a reader of ours, has sent in a photo gallery of his “baby-M” showcasing a wide range of aftermarket parts.
The super sporty 1M gets closer to a racing car, thanks to some visual upgrades with Raze carbon fiber parts. Furthermore, the 1M even gets its roof top replaced with a lightweight one. The hood is also replaced by a lightweight bonnet with double sided carbon fiber.
In the rear, tons of upgrades as well. First, the trunk panel is replaced by a carbon fiber one, while a GT spoiler sits on top of it.
For more power, the 1M gets a Gruppe M Air System and an INC turbo charge pipe. The 1M Akrapovic EVO Titanium full exhaust and wireless Kit plus downpipe was also installed to the car.
As any respectable track car, the 1M needs some serious brakes. Jason went with the Brembo GT-R Racing Calipers for E82 1M, front 380mm 6-Piston Slotted Rotors and rear 345mm 4-Piston Slotted Rotor.
The mods list below is without a doubt the longest we have seen for a BMW 1M, and certainly cost the owner tens of thousands of dollars.
