Philosophy
Free from the compromises of series production, AC Schnitzer develops custom components to the highest standard of perfection.
"Form follows function" - This guiding principle is systematically applied by the engineers and designers of the aerodynamic components for BMW vehicles.
AC Schnitzer aerodynamic components pick up and subtly emphasise the styling lines of the base vehicle, while giving the body striking new contours.
At the same time however, they have a real effect: They increase downforce on the front and/or rear axles, to ensure better ground adhesion.
Only high quality composite materials, such as PUR or carbon, are used in production of our AC Schnitzer aerodynamic components. Because only these materials meet our high quality standard.
Material: ASA (acrylic ester-styrene acrylonitrile) ASA is a UV-resistant, bleach-resistant, all-purpose material with the mechanical properties of an ABS plastic. The material has a high mechanical resistance combined with the best possible surface finish and aesthetics. The AC Schnitzer aerodynamic components pick up the lines of the respective vehicle, discreetly reinforce them and give the bodywork exciting new contours. Efficient Performance by AC Schnitzer The original AC Schnitzer aerodynamic components improve the driving behaviour by minimising air resistance Increased security Long service life due to the use of high quality materials, precision fit at series level, easy painting and assembly, parts certificate Increased Driving Spa A noticeable increase in the sportiness of your vehicle thanks to the AC Schnitzer aerodynamic components, which you can experience even more intensively
Creative Design
PUR, ASA or Carbon: at AC Schnitzer, all draft designs originate from a true Italian artist: Michele Viandante, who has been Head Designer here for many years. Naturally his designs are not only beautiful but must prove their suitability: for example, many parts are function-tested in the wind tunnel.
Testing
If the calculations match the results, further tests follow. For example, crash tests using dummies confirm that pedestrian protection requirements are fulfilled. Only when all tests have been passed and the homologation certificate has been issued are AC Schnitzer aerodynamic components released for sale worldwide.
Homologation Certificate
The parts homologation certificate is an official document which allows the use of tuning parts in public road traffic within the framework of the (StVZO) German road traffic licensing regulations (and some other countries). After installation or conversion of the part described in the certificate, the vehicle must be presented to an official inspection body. The inspector determines the correct installation and the authenticity of the part and subsequently enters the modification in the vehicle documents. The official operating license of the vehicle thus remains in force. The parts homologation certificate is part of the scope of delivery.
