Revozport Sideskirts.

Yeineken · 12-18-2014, 07:02 AM

Curious as to why more people don't run these. I love the aggressive look of them. I've seen them on VO and AW. Has anyone seen them on BSM? And if so share the pics!

cuz they're expensive

Nkc > +1

$1400 + shipping (another $200-$300). Maybe you can get a discount, but its well over $1K.

Granted yes they are expensive. But so are the Revozport diffuser and front lips that people run quiet a bit.

There is a cheaper fiberglass version out there that looks exactly like Revozport.

Maybe because it makes the 1M look Japanese and adds pointless extra weight?

How does it add weight? They're made from carbon fiber.

The design on them is actually pretty solid. The added line on the side skirt leads to the rear bumper line like the e92.

They are very light too. I have all their other parts but not the side skirts. Einser m had them though.

Surprised you haven't gotten a custom set for your wider rear arches.

And carbon fiber has negative weight right?

Not trying to get in a pissing match here. But plastic v carbon fiber?? Their not made of steel.

I have yet to weigh the OEM SS, but the idea of CF is to shed weight. I'm 200% convinced that RAZE SS are lighter -- by a considerable amount. These don't go mounted on top of the OEM ones (unless I'm somehow mistaken), so it's certainly not adding ANY weight.

Although expensive, RAZE has solid product line. It doesn't resembled anything Japanese. Not even close IMHO.

You are mistaken.

Appears to be a solid carbon piece. Unless I'm visually impaired.
