Mine arrived yesterday just 2 weeks after it was dispatched (despite them trying to sell me priority shipment at £172 under the threat of a 2 month delivery timeline!). No customs charge yet, expect this in the post soon. Now just to fit it

It's on its way today!

Gotta admit, they anticipation of its arrival is marred somewhat by the fear of the customs bill that's likely to accompany it. No turning back now though.

I would have jumped at this at the time,had my car not started needing some fairly serious money spent on it

£63 that's good, what value did they put on the item at Gruppe M?

For all who missed out, I got in contact with GruppeM directly to see if there was any kind of forum discount they would be willing to set up, seeing as their system is particularly popular with z4 enthusiasts.

They agreed to give us a 25% discount but just ironing out getting a code from them that works. Not quite the good Christmas deal (which I regret missing out on now!) but it’s still something!

Arrived yesterday, and looks glorious!

No sign of any customs charges, which has me more nervous now, than before it arrived

Now installed!

Sounds different, from 2.8k you can hear (IMO) a deeper growl, and a little louder in the cabin.

The oem instructions are a bit naff. But this is good:

I'll add some photos after I have done the rear shocks!

Any noticeable gains?

Smiles per gallon yes, (maybe placebo) but feel keener to rev.

But objectively it just sounds ace! and looks ace. Also in my" man math mind" if it was 40% I can sell it in the future and it will be cost neutral!

I struggled with the metal disk and spacers, but the guide https://www.zpost.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1221974 makes sense.
Screws B and C Middle and longest are used to attach / sandwich the plate and grate to the new shroud, and will be on a wonk not flush.

How are you all getting along with your GruppeM's a couple of months on?? Did any of you get away without paying customs charges?

DSGRNMCM · Post by **DSGRNMCM** » Mon May 03, 2021 1:39 pm

Still love it!

No custom charges so that was a bonus. The sound is great, and I would describe the driving feeling as having a half sport button engaged if that makes sense. Only minor downside I've noticed is that it is not as smooth at minimal throttle input, a bit jerky, but I can live with that.
