Aerodynamic components for improved appearance and driving response
The M Performance Parts product portfolio features a extensive range of aerodynamic components made of carbon-reinforced plastic (CFRP or carbon fiber). These include front and side sill attachments, rear diffuser and mirror caps that add emphasis to the already powerful exterior design of the compact high-performance sports car.

The front and side sill attachments in combination with the rear spoiler and diffuser optimize the airflow around the vehicle, which in turn impacts positively on handling and driving performance. Matching these the carbon fibre exterior mirror caps stylishly round off the M2's sporty appearance with their striking look. The same applies to the M Performance front and side grill in high-gloss black with integrated BMW M logo in the BMW M colors red, blue and light blue.

M Performance Parts for the M2 engine, suspension and brakes enhance performance
The M Performance flap silencer system makes for more intense perception of the engine sound. Its two operating modes Sport and Track can be set by Bluetooth remote control. The Sport mode is intended for use on public roads and indulges the driver with a distinctive sporty sound that has been harmonized with the BMW M2 engine. Meanwhile the Track setting cranks up the volume and character of the exhaust. This creates a much more intense driving experience and makes the driver feel more closely connected to the car.

The M Performance flap exhaust system further enhances the BMW M2 visually, too, with its 80mm high-gloss exhaust tips, deep-embossed M Performance logo, and perforated inner pipe. As an alternative there are also carbon fiber exhaust tips with a diameter of 93 millimeters and integrated BMW M logo.

The BMW M2 Coupe can be fitted with the BMW M Performance coilover suspension to optimism road holding and handling. The coilovers reduces ground clearance by at least five millimeters and can be used to lower the vehicle by an additional 20 millimeters. The shock absorbers can be adjusted to 16 levels in the rebound stage and 12 in the compression stage. This means you can create a suspension set-up according to personal preference. Whichever setting is selected, the tighter basic set-up as compared to the standard suspension reduces the pitch and roll movements of the vehicle improving highly neutral driving response and providing maximum direct feedback to the driver.

The BMW M Performance sports brake pads offer increased brake performance at the track and on the street. Their composition is derived from the long-distance brake pads that have become well-established in motor racing. This means the BMW M Performance sports brake pads have a particularly high resistance to thermal stress and do not show any fading tendencies even when constantly subjected to extreme use. They also offer an improved, more direct response as compared to the standard brake system.

Options for the interior inspired by motorsport
The interior of the BMW M2 Coupe can also be given a touch of personal style with the addition of BMW M Performance Parts. The BMW M Performance LED door sill covers for the driver and passenger side are stylish and striking as the door is opened. The same applies to the M Performance floor mats, which are not only sweet looking but also offer improved grip due to their non-slip surfaces made of rubber and textile fiber. The stainless steel pedal covers are a perfect match as well with their pronounced rubber profiles they prevent the foot from slipping off the brake and clutch pedal.

BMW is one of very few automobile manufacturers in the world to offer its own steering wheels with Alcantara cover for retrofit purposes, and the BMW M Performance range actually includes two different models. The M Performance Pro steering wheel with grip areas covered in Alcantara is particularly marked in its shaping and generally has a harder foam body than the standard steering wheel, resulting in better grip and a more precise steering feel. It also has a light blue central marking at the 12 o'clock position. The three-color M seam and the optional open-pore carbon fiber trim element with M Performance inscription give the M Performance Pro steering wheel an especially attractive visual appearance.

In addition, BMW offers the M Performance steering wheel with race display and carbon fiber trim as standard. With an integrated function display in the upper steering wheel rim, the driver always has a perfect view of information such as section and lap times, longitudinal and transverse acceleration. The functions are intuitively controlled by menu buttons integrated in the thumb recesses of the steering wheel. In addition to the race display there is also a gear shift indicator: two bi-color LED light strips on the right and left that run towards each other.

The BMW Performance range for the interior is rounded off with the M Performance Interior Kit Carbon, featuring trim elements for the twin-clutch transmission gear selector level, center console and handbrake handle and the M Performance interior trim finishers with their especially attractive blend of Alcantara and carbon fiber.

M2 performance parts - how and where do I order

This is probably going to sound lame, but I have an M2 on order and I am definitely going to install the black M2 kidney grills. OK, here's the lame part. Where and how do I order those grills? I have to wait a few (several) months for the car, but if I can get the grills now or soon I will hang them on the wall and imagine the rest of the car around them!! But i don't know where or how to order them. The BMW US website doesn't have any information.
