Usually the art of tuning a BMW is AC Schnitzer’s work. This time around a Japanese tuner is trying their hand at a Beamer and they have turned their attention to the BMW M3 sports coupe model. Craftsman, the aforementioned Japanese tuner, is offering a very original looking design for the German coupe. And if you want a piece of Craftsman’s work then you will only have to wait 4.5 months from the order date for the delivery of your Craftsman’s model.

The package includes tinted headlamps and rear tail lamps, a unique carbon fiber front lip, an Akrapovic EVO exhaust system that adds an extra 20 HP (so that the M3 now delivers a total of 440 HP), a carbon fiber add-on rear diffuser, and an LED rear fog light. The whole package is finished by 20" Work Equip E05 wheels wrapped with Advan Sports rubber. And we have to admit, this Individual Dakar Yellow combined with the carbon fiber inserts looks amazing.

The interior only gets a few tweaks coming as a set of Recaro SR-6 seats, suede leather, and carbon fiber trims.

Pricing for this package has yet to be announced.

In the world of high-end luxury, very few automakers can match the esteem and reverence attached to the Rolls-Royce brand. So when you’re on the drawing board for a design study of a Rolls, the first thing that immediately pops in your head is how you can take the luxury to a whole new level.

Turkish designer, Timur Bozca, understands that and his latest study all but confirms the route to take when dressing up a Rolls-Royce Phantom: add as many expensive materials - like say, gold, for example - on the car to drive up the extravagance. The first thing he did was use the aforementioned gold material to cover some of the car’s exterior, including the grille, the rims, the outline on the lights, the badging, and even the plate casing.

Even the Phantom’s interior wasn’t spared from the luxury overload with plenty of gold to go around, showering the occupants with enough bling to make Mr. T blush with envy. Nothing looks better in gold than a dressed up Rolls-Royce Phantom, right?

The car is definitely a call to luxury, whether some people think it’s excessive or not. The only downside to having all this gold on your car is that it immediately becomes a target for those with kleptic hands.
