I wish there was a thread of example so long beach blue metallic, snapper rocks metallic and Atlantis metallic side by side.
My M2 was LBB and Atlantis does give me LBB vibes, but LBB is a little bit more teal than Atlantis I think.

Very opposite, recently at a car meet near a LBB M2 and me and my wife were like whoa Atlantis is way more teal and LBB much more blue.

In pics Atlantis looks LBB without editing

Color looks great. I didn't know they were already copying the Vorsteiner front lip. These guys are quick.

You’ll have to download some editing software to show the true color, the camera only picks up blue even though the reality is very very teal
Yes, exactly. I have Long Beach Blue and it doesn't show the green on camera for whatever reason.

I have only seen it twice in person, but I think Atlantis is lighter and a touch more green than LBB. In terms of the amount of green I think it goes: Snapper Rocks -> Atlantis -> Long Beach Blue.

Leaving both spoilers on is….unique, I guess? Everything else looks nice.

Super Gorgeous....

Reminds me of the Atlantis Blue vs Atlantic Blue BMW controversy.
One letter difference...different shades of Blue.

Cheers

Favourite blue on a M car. I distinctly remember Dubsesd(sp) and this beautiful F80 6 speed.

Photos cannot actually show the real colour in person.
I think it's closer to Snapper Rocks rather than long beach blue.

Parts:
M performance spoiler
Vorsteiner CF front lip

Going to install KW HAS spring next week.
It is not bad w the front spoiler. Adds to it, not sure about the rear, looks not proportional.
