Prior-Design: E92 Widebody (based on BMW 3-Series) news

Press release...

Once again, the designers at Prior Design have raised the bar: With the new BMW M3 lookalike body kit for the current three-series coupe model, the tuners from Kamp-Lintfort have produced an absolute masterpiece. Following the ‘tame’ version, which appeared in August of this year, comes the widebody version, which suits all E92 models with the exception of the real M3, and thus transforms every coupe into a genuine M3 clone.

Virtually an M3 GT2!

The widebody version is, of course, a completely new development. The body kit comprises a new front bumper with large air intakes, and a completely new bonnet with numerous air vents similar to those on the BMW M3 GT2 from long-course motor racing. A set of side skirts make the car appear lower, while the rear receives a completely new bumper and diffuser. The width of the body kit is most striking at the mudguards. The front mudguards were built completely new, while the mudguards at the rear axle were widened by a few centimetres on each side.

The new body kit also contains a spoiler on the boot lid, as well as on the roof, which are both also available in carbon fibre. It should also be noted that the rear bumper suits the M3 exhaust system as well as all other tailpipe versions, except for the 335i. Prior Design is also offering a specially designed stainless steel exhaust system in the style of the M3 that suits the new widebody body kit, which can be purchased from EUR 1,499.00. In terms of the lowering, the tuners from Kamp-Lintfort have relied on the quality of a KW coil-over kit, which allows the individual adjustment of tension and pressure.

As usual, the components of the new M3 body kit are manufactured from Duraflex, a very flexible and extremely stable material. And, of course, there is a valid TÜV component conformity certificate for every component, for smooth registration.

Prices:

Widebody body kit: from EUR 2,999.-
Bonnet: EUR 1,390.-
Rear spoiler: EUR 299.-
Roof spoiler: EUR 299.-
Front spoiler lip: EUR 449.-
M3 style exhaust system: EUR 1,499.-
Assembly and paintwork: Price on application

I like most of the Prior Design stuff.

They kitted my friend's 3series wagon, and are going to do a friend's 997... but after waiting two months my friend received a 996 kit

I like the spoiler-less, no CF roof applique version (except for that single sided, low hanging exhaust). WB kit is really good...not overdone at all.

Love it. It's subtle yet enhances the great lines of the car. Just my style.

BTW, I don't like why these kits are being called "Widebody" when all they do is, essentially, adding fender flares. I would have liked to see actual body panels adding to the girth of the car. It's like popping your Polo shirt collar and say, "Hey, I got a bigger neck now!"
