Turner Motorsport BMW Exterior Trim, Body Parts, Aero and Styling

Experience a modern interpretation of LTW styling with our latest creation. Inspired by the classic E36 lightweight, and crafted with precision by our expert engineering team at Turner, we proudly introduce our carbon LTW spoiler, setting a new standard in the industry. Carefully crafted with a multi-piece carbon design, our spoiler is not just an accessory; it's a work of art featuring a flawless glass-like finish and perfectly matched carbon weave.

As fellow enthusiasts, we understand the importance of preserving the integrity of E36s and their components. With iconic colors like Techno Violet, Boston Green, and Estoril Blue in mind, we refuse to compromise the original trunk and paint with traditional drilling methods. Instead, our carbon LTW spoiler features an innovative fastening system that requires no modifications and preserves your car's pristine showroom finish. With precision-engineered billet clamps and high-quality 3M double-sided tape, installation is a breeze, requiring only basic hand tools. No drilling is necessary.

Research and development:

We feel it is crucial to share our journey into the design and engineering that went into developing this remarkable carbon spoiler. The development of this LTW spoiler was not a quick process; it spanned over three years. Throughout this time, we dedicated ourselves to refining, testing, and making adjustments to craft a spoiler that we're thrilled to introduce to the community.

From perfecting the form and fitment to ensuring the spoilers's stability, every aspect of this project presented significant challenges. This carbon spoiler is comprised of 5 components, the base spoiler, 70mm risers, upper spoiler, gurney flap, and most importantly the mounting brackets.

Anyone familiar with carbon fiber knows the difficulty of working with these nearly 50-inch wide pieces to achieve straightness without flex while maintaining a consistent carbon weave pattern. During the initial stages of carbon testing, the manufacturing process proved to be nothing short of impossible. Issues such as carbon fiber twisting during curing, waviness in the exterior appearance, and mismatched carbon weave posed significant hurdles.

Furthermore, ensuring precise fitment was paramount. Not only did the spoiler components need to seamlessly integrate with the trunk gaps, but they also had to clear adjacent body portions without error. We underwent rigorous testing, cycling through five sets of carbon spoiler prototypes before achieving a result that met our exact standards.

Numerous adjustments were made throughout the project, including modifications to the carbon composition, bracketry, and the incorporation of gaskets between carbon layers. Our passion and dedication were poured into every aspect of this product.

Throughout the project timeline, we conducted extensive long-term testing on various vehicles, subjecting the spoiler to speeds beyond what can be publicly disclosed. When we say these spoilers are secure, we mean it. Utilizing both 3M double-sided tape and four billet brackets with a total of eight fasteners, this spoiler can be confidently installed. The billet mounting brackets are designed to fasten over the top of the factory seam sealer on the underside of the trunk for maximum stability. Near the end of testing, we decided to add an adhesive-backed gasket to the underside of the base, providing yet another layer of paint protection.

Styling:

The greatest part we have enjoyed over this project is the versatile style of the spoiler as designed. If you have read this far into our development process we can say strongly that you are a car enthusiast, well so are we. As car enthusiasts we can never leave the car alone, changing setups and most importantly styling. With the multi-piece design, the option to change up your look is just moments away with a little help from some hand tools.

Initially, we were fully committed to running the complete setup: full height, 70mm risers, and gurney flap – all inspired by the LTW look with a modern carbon twist. However, as we spent more time with the spoiler, our perspective shifted. We decided to remove the 70mm risers and suddenly rediscovered our love for the E36's original aesthetic. Without the risers, the spoiler took on a new, understated elegance, blending seamlessly with the car's overall design.

Time passed, and we began to explore other options. Removing the gurney flap toned down the race car vibe, revealing yet another layer of the spoiler's versatility. Each subtle alteration brought about a significant change in style, proving that even the smallest adjustments could make a world of difference.

Our journey with the spoiler was one of constant evolution; from full-on LTW racing aesthetics to more understated styling and back again. This flexibility was the true beauty of our creation, keeping us engaged and dedicated throughout the rigorous development process.

What is an E36 M3 LTW?

In 1995, North America received a special gift: 126 production units of the E36 M3 Lightweight, also known as the "LTW." This limited-production, track-focused E36 was equipped with a range of features, including lightweight body panels, a stiffer suspension, upgraded brakes, and, notably, a distinctive style that served as functional aerodynamic enhancements.

Among its various enhancements, the exterior held the most distinctive features. Available exclusively in Alpinaweiss paint paired with an M-colored checkered flag, this car featured an adjustable front splitter and an optional high-rise spoiler. These elements not only contributed to its iconic appearance but also solidified its place in history as one of the most iconic-looking E36s to ever hit the market.

The LTW entered the states as a "spec" car; bare-bones, lightweight, and ready to hit the track straight out of the box. Alongside the track-focused vehicle came optional components separately packaged in the trunk. These included a front strut brace, chassis x-brace, deeper oil pan with a dual pick-up pump, and, last but not least, the GT rear spoiler (let's face it, it's an LTW spoiler). Interestingly, these components actually voided the warranty because they lacked DOT approval (maybe not the coolest aspect).

Overall, this package represented the epitome of coolness at the time, perhaps even among the coolest offerings directly from the manufacturer, ever.

How can Turner give you the LTW experience?

Over the years we have subconsciously engineered a full LTW package with our own spin on it to make your own LTW-esque E36. Among the upgrades, we have made an adjustable splitter kit packed with LTW styling(T#1871611), billet x-brace(T#4056343), street/track adjustable rear camber arms(T#304099), upgraded sway bars(T#359704), tubular race control arms(T#4524483), and many more suspension, engine, and exterior enhancements. The full suite of performance and aesthetic parts were not made in conjunction with one another; rather, it emerged from our enthusiast-driven desire to capture the track-focused essence of the LTW and apply it to our own E36s.

Unmatched quality and appearance. Our unique carbon front lip is a fully boxed in design for increased durability, fit, and finish. The fully boxed in design means that this lip not only has a smooth high gloss top and side appearance but also features a high gloss plane on the underside of the lip, having the fully completed underside does a great job to not only look and feel great but to reinforce the front, back, and top of the lip for the maximum amount of strength.

Our new carbon front lip completely transforms the front end of your M3. This aesthetic piece is crafted of hand-laid 3mm twill carbon with an extremely high gloss finish. Unlike other carbon front lips for your M3 this is a fully boxed in design for maximum strength and an awesome unboxing experience. Most carbon fiber lips on the market are just carbon laid over a mold and feature an unfinished bottom edge and bare carbon on the back side. The Turner carbon fiber lip features finished high gloss carbon 360 degrees around with a rigid shell design that feels great while installing. Step aside carbon fangs, our new carbon front lip from is here to become the new "must have" aesthetic component for your E90 M3.

A one-of-a-kind front lip that can be appreciated on the track or the streets, and has the looks of a true classic that will quickly become standard equipment for all M3 owners. When going after the perfect design for the E90 M3 front lip, our goal was not to add another feature and over complicate an already perfect body styling, but to amplify the car's natural beauty. A subtle yet life changing flat plane front lip with the curb appeal that it carves the road ahead of you, like a hot blade through butter.

Once you see an M3 with our front lip, you will no longer think the front end is complete without it.

Keep your engine bay clean, your drive belts functioning properly and your engine safe from hazards on the road.

By now your factory belly pan is either falling off, broken into pieces or missing all together. Our new Turner Motorsport Aluminum skid plate for the E36 chassis is designed to replace the factory plastic splash shield. It is so common for the splash guard to be missing that we are convinced they never existed at all. Your new skid plate will feature frame mounting along with plastic riv-nuts and hardware to attach to the front bumper for an factory like fitment with extra utility.

Having a skid plate/splash guard has more purpose than you would believe. The skid plate is used to not only protect your underbody from rogue debris damaging the oil pan, but the other great benefit is protecting your drive belts and pulleys! When you open your hood and look down in front of your engine you see a series of drive belts and most likely you can see straight to the ground where there was originally a splash guard. When driving you are exposing your drive belts to the water, dirt and debris on the road which can lead to premature failure drive belts and accessories (Or even worse, the dreaded belt squeak.)

Features:

10GA 5052 Aluminum main skid plate
9GA 5052 Aluminum supports

BMW engineers positioned the oil cooler quite low under the car, positioned horizontally - an aerodynamic design that creates a vacuum force while driving, drawing heat from the oil cooler. The issue some of the vehicle owners have experienced is road debris from small branches to chunks of ice that have impacted the OE belly pan hard enough to crack the oil cooler draining the car's oil rapidly. Being one of the lowest points of the car, even a close encounter with a parking block can mean the end of the road for the factory belly pan - and oil cooler. Damage to the belly pan means reduced cooling, which can result in dangerously high engine temperatures. Once the belly pan is damaged, there is no longer any protection for the oil cooler, meaning damage to the cooler and a catastrophic loss in oil pressure may be right around the corner.

Designed using 8 gauge 5052 aluminum, this skid plate kit offers plenty of strength to protect your oil cooler and transmission. We also made sure this would be an easy, reversible upgrade by maintaining OE mounting locations and hardware that requires NO cutting or modification to your vehicle for fitment. Our engineering team also felt it was important to maintain some of the cooling features the BMW engineers spec'd out such as having a trim seal to fit snugly against the cooler edges to create the same vacuum cooling effects as stock.
