I picked up my 2022 G80 M3 M xDrive Portimao Blue over Kyalami Orange two weeks ago at the BMW Performance Center and took it straight to RTP Customs (Atlanta, GA) and did a few things:
- Xpel Ultimate Plus PPF (full car), including single-stage paint correction
- 3 year Ceramic Coat
- Xpel 35% ceramic window tint except windshield
- Painted Orange Brake Calipers to match Kyalami Orange interior (gloss finish) - comes with lifetime warranty
- Wheels & Calipers Ceramic Coat
I'm loving the protection & results! Edges are tucked-in on most body panels and corners look good to my eye. They custom cut to fit many parts the like the CF front intakes & CF diffuser. Ceramic definitely made the color pop
I took it there with a plan to do Xpel Stealth to get a finish similar to Frozen Portimao Blue, but when we tested a couple of stealth strips on the car I decided not to go that route. I was seriously considering powder-coating the 826M wheels something similar to frozen-gold or bronze-gold like the M2CS or M5CS but I'm loving the bi-color finish specially on Portimao with Orange Calipers
Future mods: 12mm spacers (have them already) and KW HAS as soon as we have an official word from KW that it's confirmed for the G80 M xDrive.
I snapped a few smartphone pics at home (unedited) on a partly sunny day. I also added a couple of pics I received from the shop to show the calipers with the wheels removed.
