I picked my car up yesterday however it's rained the whole weekend. My guy put my spacers on, but I don't have any decent pictures yet. Also I changed my brake pads to ceramic to alleviate the dust. There was very little difference in brake feel from standard brakes. I would even say, it feels better and the bite doesn't hit as hard coming to a slow roll and going into garage.

Love how the color is dynamic depending on the lighting conditions!
Nice! Straight to the reflector deletes, as well.

Pop the carbon kit on and I have the exact same spec coming for my M3! Beautiful! How do you like the black 867ms? Is it easy to make out the design in person?I have them on order but am feeling the call of the bi color as I love the design so much, I just want the details to be easily visible and am not sure if black gets lost in the wheel in person

I've tinted the reflectors and tail lights; added rear spoiler, BC Forged wheels, and lowered with KW HAS. A carbon fiber front splitter is being shipped to me. I like the look.

Honestly, I was going for the Bicolor option but I never had black wheels and my wife even said the black ones look more aggressive. Also I switched over to ceramic rakes right away because the old back ain't what it used to be.
Also I did the 15/13 BMS spacers and it made the wheels pop and they don't look lost in the large fender wells.

I went with black and standard seats since it's my daily commute as well. I'm a bit of a conservative with interior colors - don't hate me haha

Looks amazing. Thanks got my headlights and tail reflectors tinted with PPF. The guys said they couldn't do the tail lights due to it being too complex. Are yours PPF tinted?

As I have used on several cars I use VHT Night Shade spray tint. Super easy, inexpensive, and removeable. Clean surface with alcohol, mask off, and spray a couple of light coats. You're done. You can go as dark as you like, but I just like to remove the bright red color of the lens.

No problem with clearance. I calculated the offset before ordering the wheels. Offset is +8 front and +5 rear which equates to 15mm spacers in front and 20mm rear. The KW HAS are great. Ride is not bad and with the adjusters one can go much lower, however I like the current height.

Awesome, thanks.

Does it smoke out the lights or maintain a clear, transparent clarity?

I don't like the smoked look, just wanted a grey, transparent shade which is why I got a specific PPF option.

The lenses are tinted a light smoke but are transparent. Brake lights are clearly visible. If you want to learn the details there are numerous videos on youtube.

I absolutely adore this color! And the aftermarket wheels are a perfect touch.
But I STILL can NOT get over the grill and front end on this car. 😢

Hey Tx, you got to see it in person if you already haven't. I picked mine up Saturday and love it. Do you still have your Seven Series? I sold mine to get the M3.

Hey my man. That is friggin SWEET!!! Congrats. And yes, someone near me has a Blue M3 that I've seen a few times. Overall, this car is a major upgrade over the previous model. The stats don't lie. It's just not my cup of tea up front.
I still have my F0. BMW replaced my engine a few years ago under the N63 campaign for hardly nothing outta pocket.
Ironically, I L o v e the new grill on the LCI G12. And I am planning to snag a very specific color combo soon and nice set of shoes (as I always do).
I'm considering trading my X5 xDrive50i for a Audi SQ8. It is just so sweet inside and out. I'll keep you posted... 😉

Will be ordering a Dravit M4 Comp with Fiona Red interior (and carbon buckets) soon.

Curious what people think:

1) Full leather across the dash, or is that too much with a color like Fiona?

2) Which wheels do people think look best? Full black or the bi-color?

FWIW, i am very happy with bi-color and full leather. It does not feel too much at all once you sit inside.
