Sorry but there's nothing good about this fitment, unless it's a prototype? Considering how expensive this hood must be, I don't find this acceptable.

Agreed. Terrible fitment.

Minus that wing, like specifically that wing, I love it. That wing really doesn't seem to fit it properly.

See Factory M4 GT4 racer for what a front splitter and rear wing that have been properly aerodynamically wind tunnel tested and optimised for downforce should look like... Note the intakes for the brake cooling and curvature of rear wing.

It's OK, I can live with it ;-). They need to fine tune a little bit the fit of some parts, and IMO, change the rear wing to a much more serious looking (and efficient) wing from the M4 GT4 racer.

Apart from poor fitment, the wing doesn't go with the body.

Beautiful car but damn this looks like crap! Looks like an eBay ad for an aftermarket hood from China.

i like the wheels... i dont like the hood fitment. or the fact that the left endcap on the wing looks rough. i also dont like the fact that the car doesnt look to be well cleaned before the shoot. other than that... clean build

Maybe evolve could make a front bumper for this ugly duckling to make it look acceptable. The rest of it looks pretty cool, wheels look tight squeeze. You need some side exit exhausts on this one. Consider LA type spinner wheels. JK... Nice work.

Now this is a car. GTS in person is a beautiful car, I could not believe how sexy it is and how much nicer than the M4 it was, which was sitting beside it. And the best part it had a real gearbox. With double clutch none of this all thumbs manual.

What a beautiful car. It looks so aggressive in the rear mirror!

For the first bonnet out of mold its a really decent quality, that little gap is just a matter of fine adjustment.

It's a *mold*... so..

I'm amazed at the number of folks who are shocked that an aftermarket CF part that's clearly not made from the same mold as the OEM item doesn't match the OEM 💯....

Most people commenting here should probably stick with M PERFORMANCE Parts before they end up seriously disappointed.

This forum is vicious, but always entertaining.

I agree with the comments here, the hood doesnt fit and for a promo car, I feel like there should have been a higher bar set for it fitment and finish. A few more "GTS" goodies would couldn't hurt the initial visual impact of the vehicle.

Hopefully forum user feedback is heard and put to good use.
