Sunday exploration

Chapter2099 · 07-30-2023, 06:36 PM

Two questions for all of you Alpine White owners:

1.) I’m going for the Stormtrooper look on my build (which is currently in 112 status.) With that said, for those with the Exterior Carbon Fiber package, are you happy that you elected that option or does the carbon fiber pieces throw off the overall look when mixed with ABS pieces? I do not plan on getting carbon fiber side skirts.

2.) Similar scenario as above. I’m going for the Stormtrooper look. Are the all black 826Ms worth it or do the bicolor 826Ms look better? I think I got to stay all black, but the bicolor have better definition IMO.

All black…

The only advantage of bicolor wheels is they show the dust a little less. I’m switching to RedStuff so my black shoes stay clean.

Also, if I do switch to CF bits I want to pick a more aggressive chin style than M-perf, and I hate those winglets.

That build….Perfection.

Just to verify: No carbon fiber exterior pieces on yours (aside from the roof), right? I struggle to tell from afar in the pic. The mirror caps look ABS though (which look perfect here, BTW.)

I added the Carbon Fiber Exterior as a FOMO thing, but I have a feeling I’m wasting money if the StormTrooper look is my vision. My wallet wouldn’t be complaining either. lol

12 weeks with the car and here’s what has been done so far:

R44 eibach front springs
15F/12R spacers
IND reflectors
Dahler Valve Controler
Valvetronic single midpipe
Unit17 CS duckbill
Unit17 CSL style splitter
Carismo Carbon Steering Wheel
CSL DRLs

Thank you for the kind words.

Correct, no CF on the exterior. I was looking at the AT V-style black ABS chin, and the AT black V1 style grille since I’m planning front mount intakes.

No one can deny that Alpine just pops. There’s no color that does it better with the black accents, in my opinion. I wanted there to be a color that did, but I can’t find it. lol

I was also reading the other day that BWM has offered Alpine White every year since 1979…and this picture illustrates why.

Beautiful pic.

Thank you! Wanted an individual color but didn’t want to add another 6-8 months to my build. Alpine White was the only color I’d consider. Especially with the history of it.

Fitment was fine. Kinda a pain to install but other than that it was fine.
No foam trimming.
