Credit where credit is due too, my man Bob at BMW of Ridgefield has really come through throughout the process!

Nice color combo M3! I just ordered my m3 2022 black with ivory white interior but Im thinking about changing it to fiona red. You mind sharing some more interior pictures and any comments about your interior color? Thank you!!

I'm a huge fan of the Fiona. First time I ever got a non-black interior on a BMW. I think it keeps the stealth feel of the exterior being BSM but adds a touch of aggressiveness.

It's hard to capture in photos what the shade of red is. Every BMW promo shot I've seen it looks darker & deeper than it is in person. In person it's a bit on the lighter side, almost blood orange, and flat, almost pastel.

Brother, we are BSM Sewell Grapevine siblings. My car was also an order refusal that I timed right back in April. You win on carbon buckets

We should grab a beer sometime -- I office out of Valley Ranch and drive through your hood towards Northlake 5 days a week! Send me a PM if you'd like to connect!

Picked up a few weeks ago but finally got her back from ceramic coating and tint. Still waiting on KW HAS to come in the mail as well as for the AWE Track exhaust to come out. Hopefully can get everything finished before winter. Still looking for what company has best carbon exterior parts.

Looks great! I have a BSM G83 on order and plan on getting the ceramic coating done immediately after I take delivery. Did you notice a shine difference after the ceramic coating or is the paint too new to make a noticeable difference?

Mounted my track set and took a few pics.

I don't love the look and prefer my black 826s but it's function over form here.

Interestingly enough, and good news for me since I like a deeper shade, when I put some Meguairs leather conditioner on and it is noticeably deeper. So keep it conditioned, and it is a richer tone.

I think it's great, but it deserves a lowering.

Congrats! Looks awesome. Also looks like the build i'm going with. And thanks for posting a good shot of the rear without the Carbon Fiber Pack. I'm still 50/50 on that.

Is the stock diffuser color identical to BSM? Looks like it in the pic.

Yes, i believe the stock diffuser color is identical to BSM. If it isn't, its pretty darn close. Went without the CFP to keep the look entirely blacked out (with the exception of the roof of course).

VIERsr · 09-22-2021, 03:06 PM

The diffuser is gloss black, BSM is metallic as the name itself says.

jailonacs99 · 09-22-2021, 11:03 PM

I think the shadowline trim parts are also colored plastic, instead of painted like I imagine they would be for non-shadowline. That's important from a damage perspective, since painted parts are susceptible to paint chips and road damage showing much more than solid plastic. Especially the ones along the bottom of the car.

Looks great, may I ask what tint and what percentage you went with? Hoping to get the same look. Thanks!
