Debating between IOMG and some darker green shades and black vs red calipers. So far decided on KO interior and bicolor 826M wheels.
I have the red calipers they definitely pop with the darker green color. You probably won't see/notice black calipers at all.

Do they at least match the taillights and sidemarkers? Or do they seem like totally different shades of red? Maybe I'm overthinking this?

I went with the red calipers and 825 Bi-color- I think it needs the extra silver on the wheels for a bit of contrast. Never thought about the taillights or markers- but I agree black calipers would not stand out at all and blue would not look good on the green IMO.

when I was still on IOMG I had Black calipers with 826M Bicolor.

I personally think red and black goes best, blue is somekind strange with green.

Yeah that'll probably be my go to order as well.

I actually like the 825 as well. Very aggressive and shows the brake calipers better

Just dislike both the finishes with this exterior color.

Orbit grey is a easy no go for me.

And the bi-color is wayy to much silver for my liking.

With IoMG especially, both the rim and car color are very vibrant.

& It makes you fixate on the the rims alot more when looking at the car from profile. At least it does me

Wish it was more darker like how the 826 look.

If not for having a previously owned a F82 with 666's. I would have fell in love with the 826 even more so.

Not mine, delivery in a couple of weeks, but grabs from Autocar review, and also how the wheels look in direct light. Trick for me will be keeping the 826 clean. Then they are a nice subtle contrast but not too much...

826M Bicolor looks amazing on IOMG !
If you want to keep them as good as possible clean smack a ceramic coating on them.
Will make your life way easier.

A friend of mine just picked his IOMG up 2 days ago and just like that it's already one of the nicest G80/82 in the NY/NJ tri state area. No photoshop the car is actually lowered.

911 Turbo s and G82 M4 guest appearance in pics 🤏🏽 flex.. 😂

Dirty IOMG

Thought it might help to see this color a bit dirty or dusty to get a more realistic sense of it.

This color never fails to amaze me. I finally got to see it in person, but only as an G80 was going in the other direction. Certainly caught my eyes. I really hope they offer this on the G87 too!

The front end looks so good when the picture is taken from an actual human height rather than someone laying on the ground lol. This was nice to see.
