Looks great! You lowered and/or spacers?

Not yet, but will pull the trigger on Future Classics (12mm) soon. I'd lower it now as well but need modifications to my driveway first.

As I await my G82, I find some pics of stock M4s look not too bad, but then other stock M4s look to be still riding with shipping blocks installed. Not sure why

I swear you park your car, get out, jack the car up, remove the wheels, clean them, and put them back on, before every picture. I have CCBs, and my wheels aren't ever that clean.

The G82 has different body lines so they show a bigger gap. This was the day I got my PB G80...

I'm on stock springs, 12.5mm front/10mm rear spacers

I probably wash my car more than I shower.

Yeah, same as F8x, but some G82s look crazy high

Thats creative photo taking sir--- if you get the right angle you can make the car look lower. I think there has been maybe one or two posts on the boards about cars with the blocks still in.

When I took pics of my car stock, I took at it at eye level so one could really see the gaps.

Here was another G82 at Crevier

no blocks confirmed

Limegrntaln · 01-17-2022, 04:32 PM

My G82 has the same gap, at stock height. Shipping blocks were in the trunk when I took delivery, so, I know they're removed.

I never thought I'd want to lower an M4. Didn't want the ride quality to suffer and always thought the height was fine. But now that I'm taking so many pictures lately and scrutinizing them, I'm finding the gap to be too large and the inset tire with no spacers to be weird looking.

With my car I think the painted lower black panels also help in making it look lower. So some KW HAS will make it look damn nice once I get them. I just want to drop maybe an inch or so.

Sick color. Really got me thinking I should have gotten FDG now.

SMB looks good - be sure to post a new photo of the ski rack solution you have! i need to look into rack options ... i recall the F80 carbon roof didn't have mounting points.

The carbon roof G80’s have mounting points. I had a Thule rack from my old 340, I just needed to buy a new fit kit for this car.

Just because I liked the way it looked as I walked back to it. And it shows Enzian in the late afternoon light (for winter).

Because I've got 24x7 recording on the car, I've put in transparent warning stickers on the B pillars to keep people honest if they ever, ever cause any damage to the car when I'm parked in public (knock on wood).

Beautiful color! What's the recording solution you use?

BlackVue 2 channel (front and rear) - carried forward the 750S from my last car to avoid waste, but get 900X Plus if you're buying new now. It's powered from the cig lighter port in the trunk with a BlackVue battery pack inline sitting in the little cubby below the port. All the wiring was concealed in trim gaps throughout the car without removing any trim.

Santorini Blue for sale I saw today at Pacific BMW. (Asking 20k over MSRP)

I must say, I was not a fan of this color before seeing it in person. Car looks amazing in person.
