2021 BMW M4 Coupe With Widebody Kit Has Thick Hips And Less Grille

Aftermarket shops are not wasting any time as they're already preparing an array of custom bits for the new BMW M3 and M4. Avante Design decided to focus on the two-door model by developing a full widebody pa

Beyond the wider hips and enhanced aero, the amped-up coupe also gains a redesigned hood with dual vents and a power bulge for added visual drama. The more aggressive front-end design makes the XXL grille less polarizing, but we’re certain many people will prefer the traditional look Avante Design adapted from the M8 Coupe.

All that’s missing is perhaps the look-at-me center exhaust with a pair of stacked dual tips à la Lexus. They’re available for the M3 and M4 as an M Performance-branded exhaust, giving the dynamic duo a rear design just as controversial as the front fascia.

There will be three stages available, with the beefiest of them all making the M4 a full seven inches (nearly 18 centimeters) wider than the standard car.
