I have to admit that it is pretty rare seeing a fully customized MINI model on the streets and when I see one I definitely have to credit the tuning division that has done the job.

And the OK-Chiptuning division have done a darn job with this MINI JCW seen in the photos here. It is packing a special carbon fiber body kit, consisting of new front and rear spoilers, front grille, mirror caps, side skirts, flared wheel arches, rear diffuser and a few more.

The carbon fiber body kit cannot be complete without the fitting of the new set of 17-inch ATS DTC Superlight Black Edition alloy wheels, which adds up an aggressive look and more stance. The wheels are also standing on the high-performance Bilstein B14 suspension.

Apart the exterior kit, the guys from the OK-Chiptuning have also added up some mods inside, where the cabin received the Recaro Pole Position seats, the carbon fiber handbrake or the Ultra-Gauge-MFA coming with a red display.

Under the hood, this MINI JCW has also received a power boost, thanks to a software upgrade and the Akrapovic exhaust system with 100 cell downpipes. Now, the MINI JCW is capable of outputting 262 horsepower and 407 Nm of torque, at a topping of 255 km/h.

The famous Vorsteiner Californian tuning company has turned its head on the newly BMW M3 Sedan and M4 Coupe, planning a step-by-step tuning program.

The aftermarket specialists will first start carrying out a 3D scan of the two vehicles, including scans at the front bumper, front fenders, side skirts, rear bumper hood and more.

Having the digital renderings in their hands, the specialists from Vorsteiner will then start shaping, modifying and perfecting the drawings, to make sure that they are fitted precisely for an everyday use on the tracks as well as on the roads.

Technology makes possible the measuring of the depths of the car, both at the front as well as at the rear wheels, with measures to ensure an equal size between the width and the offset of the forged wheels.

Having these measurements into their database, the guys from Vorsteinter will be able to adjust the wheel specifications and will decide the type of the tires you desire for your M3 or M4.

I have to say that I was kind of missing the Ac Schnitzer tuning kits but I was also missing the tuning programs for the BMW 5 Series because they have something special, they look professional probably or don’t know what, I just love them and here we got both namely a tuning program from Ac Schnitzer for the BMW 5 Series.

Unfortunately, at the moment, the tuner released only the details about the wheels and the tires but don’t worry that this is going to be all, there will also be some power upgrades which makes this tuning program very cool.

As I said, the tuner released on the internet, only the details about the wheels and the tires so you should know that this BMW 5 Series by Ac Schnitzer comes with Type IV 19” or 20” wheels in BiColor or Silver color and also 20” Type V lightweight forged wheels.

Here is a very interesting and also cool tuning program but at the same time, this tuning kit is also very simple and because it is so simple and much simpler than the original BMW M3 Coupe it can develop higher performances having just few modifications but those modifications were made clever.

Well, first you should know that this new BMW S3-R M3 Coupe tuned by Dinan is able to develop up to 527 horsepower and also a maximum torque of 407 lbs-ft so there is a and update of 113 horsepower. Well, this update comes because of the Carbon Fiber High Flow Intake and bored out High Flow Throttle Bodies.

The tuners from Dinan also made an upgrade at the suspension with new springs, anti-swaybar, Carbon Fiber Front Strut Braces and racing Rear Toe Links. I don’t know about you but I really like this tuning program and if I would like to buy an M3 Coupe, I would also think about this tuning kit.
