You are correct only if we have made the braces with the exact same shape and structural mass out of aluminum. However, you are looking at a product milled from a full 6061 T6 billet aluminum, which is completely different. Forged carbon fiber is more ideal, but the investment and product costs will be much higher, I don't think people will want to pay $1000 for these in forged carbon fiber... |

We went with lines of the cutter tool to make it more aggressive and a bit futuristic. I use the OEM bolts since the threads are long enough and I am able to torque the bolts to the ideal 25 NM. The front section is tightened to the corner pieces by bolts and again torqued to 25 NM. |

We have the prototype (one side), but learned from the spy pics that the M2 CS might come with the M3/M4 mirrors.... so we are waiting for the official launch of the M2 CS in April to determine if we should continue with the project. It's a huge investment and there's no point if BMW can offer them (although pricy) in the future as direct replacement.

I am pretty sure there will be few people willing to pay more than $1k for forged carbon ones, but if I can't get enough quantities, I'll lose a lot of money making the molds... It'd be different if I get a confirmed order of 100 sets or more
