Vorsteiner Releases VRS Aero Package for the BMW X6 M [with VIDEO]

Following a teaser announcement back in March, German tuning specialist Vorsteiner has launched its new VRS Aero Package for the BMW X6 M crossover. Trying to improve the X6 M's appereance ain't an easy task, though Vorsteiner seems to have pulled this one off with its new kit.

At the front, the Germans opted for a carbon fiber front spoiler, which increases downforce on the front axle while also channeling more air towards the engine and brakes. The new hood is also made from the same lightweight material and features vents that extract the heat produced by the stock 555 hp twin-turbocharged V8.

A carbon fiber diffuser replacing the plastic factory piece dominates the rear, encompassing three modular fins and two vents. The latter cool the exhaust system.

An add-on rear deck lid spoiler and forged mono-block aluminum alloys, shod in Michelin PS2 tires, complete the package. If potential customers don’t like the rims showcased on the SUV, they need not worry, as Vorsteiner has a wide variety of wheels they can choose from.

Vorsteiner BMW X6M: The best-looking X6 Yet?

Vorsteiner is the latest aftermarket manufacturer to take on the X6 - in this case, the M version - and its awfulness. Their attempt makes the tumorous X6 stand out from the rest of its freakish kind, but only just.

The omni-carbon VRS Aero Package comes together like this: front splitter, vented hood (40% lighter than stock), roof spoiler, deck lid spoiler, and a swoopy rear diffuser.

The floor model seen here rolls on on-piece V-102 23-inchers wrapped in Michelin rubber. All pieces will be available this summer.

Vorsteiner Does the New BMW 7-Series

California tuner Vorsteiner joins the parade of tuning firms tweaking the latest generation of BMW's 7-Series limousine with the release of a new sport kit. Called the VR-7 Sportiv Aero, the package is available for both the standard and long wheelbase versions of the Bavarian automaker's flagship sedan.

The package includes several components made from carbon fiber such as the front apron, boot lid spoiler and a diffuser integrated in the rear bumper. Vorsteiner claims that these parts help increase the sedan's front-end downforce and stability.

Aside from the VR-7 Sportiv Aero package, the BMW 750i featured in these photos is also fitted with H&R's super sport suspension kit that lowers the car's ride height by 48 mm, and Vorsteiner's 21-inch forged alloy wheels that are offered in numerous finishes including brushed aluminum, chrome, gunmetal, black and silver.

The alloy wheels are shod in Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 tires size 255/30 R21 at the front and 285/30 R21 at the rear.

Nissan GT-R Receives the Carbon-Fiber Aero Treatment from Vorsteiner

California tuner Vorsteiner is joining the parade of tuners fiddling around with the Nissan GT-R through its sub-division, Ventross, that released details on a new carbon fiber aero package slated for market release on June 1st, 2009. The exterior aerodynamic package consists of two components, a front fascia and a rear diffuser both of which will be (hand)made to order rather than mass produced.

The tuner's new GT-R front fascia comes with larger carbon fiber air intakes for the radiators and includes additional side louver openings feeding air to the brakes through the front fender lining slats along with a more aggressively styled front spoiler that attaches to the factory under tray.

At the back, Ventross has designed a new lightweight carbon fiber diffuser housing three integrated fins with central heat extraction vents that replaces the GT-R's factory diffuser.

Vorsteiner Dresses the BMW M3 Sedan with Dry Carbon Aero Kit

Oddly enough, Vorsteiner has released a new dry carbon aero kit for the 2008 BMW M3 E90 Sedan, a model that was in the market only for a few months as the Bavarian automaker replaced it shortly after its market introduction in early 2008 with the facelifted 2009MY M3 sedan. But anyway, the California-based tuner's proposal include various lightweight dry carbon components such as a trunk lid, a front-lip spoiler and a rear diffuser with integrated fins.

California-based tuner Vorsteiner that specializes on Audi, BMW, Mercedes and Porsche models, has released a new aerodynamic and alloy wheel package for the Porsche 911 Turbo (997) called "V-RT". Up front, the exterior kit adds a new front fascia that features larger carbon fiber air intakes for the radiators and elimination of the fog lights like the factory 997 GT2 as well as a removable dry carbon fiber front lower spoiler. According to Vorsteiner, the new bumper assembly is lighter than the factory bumper.

The 997 Turbo's rear-end receives a new and wider bumper with enlarged side intercooler extraction vents that house a replacement dry carbon fiber shroud plus a new molded carbon fiber rear diffuser with integrated twin aero fins that encompass the quad sport exhaust tips. The VR-T aero package is completed with a carbon composite rear deck lid/engine cover with twin ram air scoops.

Finally, Vorsteiner has developed a new set of seven-spoke, 3-piece forged wheels with a race-inspired center mesh design that are available in 19- and 20-inch configurations.
