I actually like this rear bumper much more than the new iS rear bumper - maybe BMW could buy this from Hamann and put it on the iS

The rear valance is between the exhaust pipes. Side skirts are called just that or rocker panels.

Ok, thanks, sometimes it's hard to understand some words.

I would clone that black monster if i had the means..................

Probably next year there will be wheels, exhaust and some ECU programming if it is possible to take of and go OEM again,

1 week to go......................

In my mind they took a classic looking car and turned it into a boy racer, tuner car, that are a dime a dozen. To me it looks like they cheapened the smooth and graceful lines. I think here is a case of more being less.

True, what I meant was that of all the modified Z4's, ACS, Hamann, Hartge and so on the 3D Design is the most stylish and still looks as an Z4. While for example some ACS cars look like an AMG!!

The Z4 doesn't need to be modified, but some mods are more "kind" to its style than others.

i just love that rear valance and exhaust - it does not adversely affect the classic lines of the car; a subject on which I agree with Alan64 completely

Although it would be nice to see a longer 3/4 view of the front to know for sure. The black color makes it hard to judge the lines as well, but I do like the rear valance and exhaust.

No offense intended to anyone in love with those wheel, but they remind me of a '70's or '80's style, which I really liked at the time, but it has worn a little thin IMO.

Hamann-tuned Z4

Not sure if this has been posted before but found a sick article on Motortrend.com regarding Hamann's iteration of the latest Z4 model...
