The Bodywork

The focal point of the development work was adaptation of the breathtaking, costly aerodynamic conversion for series production. Into the bonnet large air outlet edged in a chrome frame have been fitted so that the ventilation of the power plant is actively supported by sufficient cooling air flow.

Also the front skirt of the TENSION technology showcase has been completely adapted. It improves downforce on the front axle at high speeds. The air intake provides additional cooling for the engine and the front brakes.

The new front wing is equipped with indicators which with their three chrome ribs are reminiscent of a shark's mouth.

The skirts not only give the TENSION Street Version a more elongated appearance but also ensure a harmonious transition to the huge rear.

The rear skirt houses not just the solid stainless steel twin exhaust system with chromed Sports Trim tailpipes but also a carbon diffuser.

Another highlight at the rear is the boot lid which was originally reserved for the TENSION. But its modified styling gives the rear of the BMW 6-series the "Finishing Touch", so the new boot lid is now a firm part of the Street Version conversion.

The bodystyling is completed by the sports mirrors and the extravagant two-colour paintwork.
