My build just went 112 so I want to run my build/colors to see if there’s any suggestions or thoughts.

  • IOMG (of course) with Tartufo interior. IOMG is bright and flashy but the interior is more grown up and sophisticated.
  • CF interior trim.
  • Black calipers as I think red is too Christmas-y and blue clashes with the blue.
  • Bicolor 826m for some contrast to the black calipers.
  • I removed shadow line lights because i don’t know how much I love the look on IOMG.

Want opinions:
  • Does anyone have black 826m with black calipers? If so how does it look?
  • Add Extended shadow line delete or leave as is?
  • Extended Shadow line with non-shadow line lights, does that seem weird? Should I keep either both shadowline or both non-shadowline?


I know ultimately it’s all up to me and my personal taste but still, would love any opinions!

Congratulations on the build!

I went with red brakes and don’t think it is Christmas-y, but it is personal taste. I think red is sporty and the black just disappears. Agree blue would clash with the green.

I went with the bi-color 825M wheels and think they looks great. The bi-color on the 825M wheels seems to “pop” more to me than the 826M wheels where it seems a little more muted.

I did not option the Shadowline headlights and do not regret it, but went back and forth for weeks on this particular option. I wanted to go with a little lighter spec and so optioned the extended Shadowline delete. I like the way the spoiler and mirror caps look, as well as the chrome exhaust tips. I also did not want to deal with the inevitable hair line scratches that show up on all the high gloss back parts.

I’ve included below some pictures of my car for reference. Note, though, that the wheels on it right not are the 829M wheels with winter tires.

Other than the wheels and brakes you’ve optioned, if you go with the Shadowline delete our cars will be substantially similar!

You'll be fine with the CCBs. One of the biggest benefits to me for them!

Looks great!!! Do you know the offsets on the wheels? Are you running spacers?

Thanks! They are out of the box 20x9.5 et 5 and 20x11 et 12.

275/30 and 295/30 set-up. No spacers and no rubbing on Falken tires, lowered on H&R. I read people with similar set-ups rub depending on the tires they use but I'm glad I have no issues!

I have black 826m with black calipers. They look good. Just keep in mind the black 826ms are a PITA to keep clean. Pretty wheels, but most frustrating wheels to clean of any vehicle I’ve had.

Extended shadowline with shadowline lights are the way to go, IMO.

Pics attached.

IOMG Touch up paint

Called BMW dealership today to order some touch up paint. I was told BMW does not make IOMG touch up paint. Anyone else hear the same thing? I'm thinking it's true because it's not available to order through BMW online either. Kinda scary. Get that PPF amirite? Obviously there are options like Dr. Colorchip but I do like having it from the manufacturer.

Correct. You can't get it from dealer. Either something like you stated or also a body shop can get you some from what I've been told although you might be limited to a quart as far as how small you can go.

It does suck though since IOMG isn't a special order paint it should be available like other colors.

I’ve used Dr. Colorchip on every car I’ve had. It’s honestly the first thing I order when buying a car, because I know I’ll use it. It matches perfect on the car. If you stick your face 3” from the paint you’ll probably see it, but I’d have to go looking and try to remember where the one or two rock chips I’ve gotten in the past 2y are. I wouldn’t stress over it.

Can confirm Dr. Colorchip IOMG works. Ran into this same issue with my first rock chip (GASP!), and it covered perfectly. Came quickly as well (TWSS!)

Mine has the black wheels but with red calipers. Shadow line lights i think looks better but don’t think that combo would look weird at the same time. If you option the carbon fiber package, the only difference that the shadow line delete gives you is chrome exhaust tips (which i love). If no carbon package, I wouldn’t option the extended shadow delete if it were my car as i like the darker mirrors and spoiler but it’s another personal preference deal.
