What mod is this?

nateate8 · 03-16-2016, 12:27 PM

Might be a noob question but I'm trying to figure out what the below mod is? It splits up the front bumper but it's not a lip or anything...

Not a mod per se, although I guess you could make it one, but the blades in the vents are features on these cars outside of North America. Talked about a lot in the forums. Look around to find if anyone has figured out how to add them if you want them.

Yeah I tried looking around but don't know what they're called/what to search for lol. Thx for the info

Blades and fins are probably what I've seen most

Be happy not to have these things, you have an oil cooler instead of these plastic parts. I would have preferred the oil cooler on my swiss M235i...

Got it, I see it now. If there's a change to performance other than purely cosmetic, I'll take a pass. Thx for your help guys.

The NA markets don't get those; they are featured on EU and AP cars.
