Congrats - Tanzanite looks great with Silverstone and the 825s. I have a Tanzanite/Kyalami build that is spec'd pretty similar to yours scheduled to hit the port in NY later today.

Approaching winter tire season I need help deciding what to do. I've got these 829Ms from the G80 but not looking forward to putting black wheels on the tanzy.

Should I have them powdercoated in gunmetal, silver, bronze or swap them for something else entirely?
Stort grattis! Received my M4CX dravit 3 weeks ago.

I went with 826M jet black, mostly because they were available at a really good price. Which seems like a good decision, since there were some rain/snow here in Sthlm today.

Do you know of any good places to powder coat the wheels, in the Sthlm area?

Its because of the base material, aluminum fender to a plastic bumper. Its normal on every car if you look.

So normal poor quality of paint? sorry for my ignorance but can't understand how paint can look different just because is over plastic bumper vs metal. Thanks mate.

Exactly. It doesn't matter if you have a brand new Ferrari, or Lambo or Porsche, or Audi or MB or 25 year old Camry. The results will be the exact same. Even when the same can of paint is used from the same gun, on the same day at the same temperature in the same room by the same robot or person. Paint adheres differently to plastic bumpers than it ever will on metal body panels. Just enjoy your M3 man!

Thank you so much for your advice, and I have a M4 not an M3.
