Seen in these photos for the first time is what we believe is the F20 1-series with BMW Performance Aero Kit (front bumper, sideskirts, and rear bumper) with BMW Performance racing stripes. As with the prior 1-series, the BMW Performance program for the F20 will feature both cosmetic and performance parts, some of which may be revealed at the upcoming Frankfurt IAA show in September.
Which clues indicate that the aero parts underneath the camouflage are BMW Performance parts and not merely M-sport parts?
Foremost, the BMW Performance stripes are a pretty good indication. Also, BMW has already released images of the F20 M-sport model, so there's little need to camouflage M-sport parts. Compared to F20 M-sport photos below, this test car's front bumper is clearly a different shape and style. Lastly, this particular model also features special badging of some kind (covered by camouflage tape). The F20 M-sport does not feature any special badges.
