E92 LCI M-Sport Front Lip

It has been a while since we posted some updates and we apologize for this, especially when there is plenty of news to post up.

Introducing the all new Front Lip Spoiler for E92 LCI M-Sport bumper

The front lip really accentuates the front lines on the E92 LCI and really takes the 3 Series to another level.
As usual, the front lip is a a full poly-urethane construction for extra strength and flexibility and endurance.
You can also opt for the full dry carbon fiber under splitter for that extra down force.

WHEELSTO visits STUDIE AG/Base! in Yokohama, Japan

This was it...

The final stop before Johan@WSTO jumped on the plane back to the states.

We saved the best for last, and it was worth it. We finally ended our trip at the head quarter of Studie AG in Yokohama, Japan. The home of it all. Studie AG has 5 shops all over Japan including Tokyo, Sendai, Kobe and Kidnie. The owner of Studie AG, Bob Suzuki waited to meet up with Johan. It was a short meeting but very memorable. He gave him a few gifts including a Studie AG +Das Foto- photo book, and some cool goodies as well, anyways let's tour the shop!

As we arrived to the Studie/Base!

The outside of the shop, relocated below the Yokohama train rails. The architecture of the shop is very simple, and clean. But inside it holds some of the most phenomenal BMW motor cars in Japan and all over the world. There is shop in the world like it. Some people will never understand why Studie paints their cars in wacky colors, and has anime inspired vinyl schemes but you have to understand that no one would ever think about doing those things to a full competition Super GT race car. Not only are they a tuning shop, but what sets them apart from the rest is that they know how to combine culture with motor sports in a wild, artistic and a well executed manner. Nothing like it!

E89 Z4 by kudac63 from ZPost

This is couple of months old but I had to share this fine specimen of an E89 Z4 by kudac63 of ZPost.

This E89 Z4 35i has the 3D Design front lip, rear diffuser and the Eisenmann Quad exhaust system.

Interpretation of the new F10 by 3D Design

The new 5 series (F10) is already the sensation as the newest and baddest "sporty" sedan.
Many tuners like Hamann has already released their interpretation of the new F10 and I am sure that there are many more to come.

I believe that 3D Design has really taken styling to a whole new level with the F10. Keeping the lines clean and not diverting too much from the original lines of the F10.  This is also the first time that they have released a roof spoiler and boy, have they done a great job.

Styling parts available:
- Front Lip Spoiler (Polyurethane)
- Rear Diffuser (Carbon Fiber)
- Trunk lip Spoiler (Polyurethane)
- Roof Spoiler (Polyurethane)

The F10 program does not end here...

3D Design Type III Forged Wheels - NEW PRODUCT

Type III Forged is a new wheel that is hot off the press by 3D Design.

The Type III Forged is an 8000ton Die Forged wheel made by the powerhouse of Forged wheels; Taneisya.
The Type III starts is life as a sold disc of high-grade aluminum alloy. This single billet alloy is pressed under 8000 tons of pressure to increase material density and tensile strength as the billet is shaped into a wheels. This very highly technical process makes the metal much stronger and therefore, allows the wheels to be made thineer and lighter without sacrificing strength.

WSTO visits Studie Tokyo!

I had never been as excited as I was about visiting tuner shops as I was when visiting Studie. The excitement of visiting Tokyo Auto Salon had left me in daze that I had still not awaken from when I went to visit Studie. Studie has five locations; Yokohama, Tokyo, Kobe, Sendai and Kidnie. I had the honor of visiting 2 of those fine establishments, Tokyo (their latest which opened last year) and the main hub, Studie Yokohama.

Studie Tokyo did not look at all like a tuning shop. In fact, it really had the aura and the feel of an automobile museum. Upon entering, the display of miniature versions of BMW Motorsport’s finest from the past and present enables guests to submerge in the history of BMW at a single glance.
