With a M2C with no CF parts or exterior mods for 2 years now, (besides 763M) the body of the F87 is starting to get somewhat boring for me, especially with all the new modified G87's rolling out.

I was looking into Front lip, sideskirts, diffuser, rear spoiler all in either M-performance or CS parts, but this again is pretty common and not really inspiring.

Looking for input on aftermarket kits!

Criteria:
Daily Street / Weekend Canyon car
Non-replicas
Almost OEM like fitment
Would like to keep same brand for at least frony/side/diffuser for design flow

Any recommendations? Is OEM just the best outcome in the end?

Looked into Adro, any experiences?

Off the top of my head, I can think of 3 other original designs.

3D Designs
Turner
RKP

Personally, I find the F87 doesn't really mod well because the original design is quite subdued and understated (IMO in a good way). It's more mature looking than it lends itself out to be and there aren't many egregious body lines, bulges, or flares to work with compared to, say, a Supra. Outside of a GTS hood, you're possibly looking at a widebody kit if you'd like it to stand out more.

My own car for reference. I feel like I'm suspension, wheels, and a hood away from bringing out the best I can for this car, street-wise.

Yea completely agree, it's got the classic lines but just lacking in the "new" department, maybe it will have the e46 m3 vibe in a few years.

What sides and diffuser do you have?

The F87 in its stock form looks so damn good that its hard to suggest much beyond a few little things. A diffuser and exhaust tips are a must; beyond that, little trim pieces here and there is all it takes to have a beautiful car.

The little things go a LONG way imo, like a nice license plate frame and tinted windows.

Good luck with whatever you choose!

I went with the RKP side skirts and 3D Design Type 2 rear diffuser.

R44 front lip
Suvneer side skirts
R44 diffuser
M Perf style spoiler
Generic 4" exhaust tips

RKP for me all the way. I'll hoping to complete it next year.

I have M Performance carbon fiber parts. Diffuser, spoiler, interior kit, M Performance exhaust with carbon tips to name a few. OEM parts look better after a few years of wear.

Well just to update, I got the OEM CS Spoiler to start off- Figured this is the most visible and alot of the replicas I saw had wavy? clearcoat finishes.
I am pretty set on the TRE Autoid's CS-style lip and rear diffuser, the TRE line with prepreg carbon actually has two years warranty which is unheard of in other replicas. I'm hoping this guarantees a better quality than other replicas.

Final decision to make is the sideskirts- TRE has a M-perf replica winglet as well, and is probably the safer bet to flow with the CS front, but I am getting over the whole winglet design. Maybe a simple straight sideskirt across the entire rocker panel will be more aggressive?

FYI, I just received and installed the RW Carbon CS front splitter. That thing fit like a glove. I was pleasantly surprised. Quality and weave look pretty good too. The longevity aspect of it I obvious still need to find out. The clear coat doesn't seem super thick to my eyes and touch, but we'll see how it plays out. I don't expect front splitters to age particularly well anyways. I wish they had a dry/matte carbon, feel like it would look better longer.

Great! Yea RW would be my second pic since they are local, well-known company, but AutoID just seemed like higher long-term quality- Just waiting for Black Friday to order all the aero at once!

I think ceramic coating might help the RW lip last a bit longer! Plan to do the same to all my pieces later.

Yeah I was thinking about coating. Good luck with your autoid and lmk how they turn out!

Does the RW CS lip use the factoy mounting holes?

You have to drill some new holes to utilize all the holes that the splitter has in place.

Hi
I have the Suvneer side skirts for over a year now.
Can you expand a little about how you installed them as far as placement and attaching them?
Thanks in advance.
