Short Video of G80 M3 in Frozen Brilliant White

Jmpascual · 10-11-2020, 12:00 PM

Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

Found this short clip on YouTube, and frozen brilliant white is looking really good here, especially with the wheel combo. Makes me want to bite the bullet and get the frozen paint!

And in case you missed previous images from https://g80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1764111

thought i would dislike every color other than black due to the grille, but white, IOMG and the frozen colors really make this car stand out

h_bakken · 10-11-2020, 04:14 PM

I adore Frozen paint.

Puuhapete · 10-12-2020, 01:33 PM

I always loved the color of my Mineral White 2011 E92 M3. This Brilliant White seems to be even better?

Frosty · 10-12-2020, 04:54 PM

.. very tempted to get Frozen Portimo Blue... has anyone had experience with frozen paint? Would your average paint shop be able to handle the finish in the event of damage?

lixiang7349 · 10-12-2020, 04:58 PM

Frozen just means satin right?

Saphirschwarz · 10-12-2020, 05:20 PM

Nice.... but is it worth the price ?

I have a frozen white e92. Most maintenance friendly paint out there but hard to match if it gets damaged

Bullish657 · 10-12-2020, 05:30 PM

I bet lots of American suspension experts cant wait to lower this on bilstein shocks and then claim its better than BMW until they crash it into a tree

F85MTuNED · 10-12-2020, 05:31 PM

Beautiful... I love white cars but I will never own one.

Thanks Garret, have you ever had to have a panel repainted?

I'm trying to reconcile Frozen and Brilliant in the same sentence.

I have a M5 with frozen red, and I'm extremely happy with the look of the car,.it's take the car to a whole different level. Taking care of of the paint is rather easy, the car doesn't get dirty as much a regular paint, and most of the time just rinsing the car with water do the trick.
I found the best way to clean the paint is by hand free car wash. You should not rub the paint. Either air dry or gently dry with a regular towel ( I was told not to use microfiber). I spent $300 for a layer of ceramic coating and It's worth every penny. it's give extra protection and and you don't need to dry the car after the wash.
Repair is the different story. I have a friend with a frozen grey M5 and had to repair the fender after he hit a deer. He had to send the car to a special shop, but his insurance picked up the tab. Bottom line is if you have a good insurance, don't worry about it.
If you can afford a M car, I think couple of grands for frozen paint would very well worth it.

If you see a M car with frozen paint in your rear view mirror you get what I'm talking about!

SevM · 10-12-2020, 05:44 PM

Wowwww!!

this is what I call a car! Imagine red interior with this exterior color.

So gas station car washes are a no go then? Lately I've gotten too lazy to wash it myself.

lots of frozen content being released

Find a hand free car wash in your neighborhood, they are popping up everywhere. I don't take any car to gas station car wash, spinning pads can pick up sands from other cars, and you are done. I learned it in a hard way on my 2011 m3.

Yes frozen is a satin finish. I agree it's very low maintenance. A really good body shop should be able to fix any damage. I love mine also. Recommend ppf for the hood, front bumber and mirrors. Ceramic coat the whole car also. Makes it even easier to keep clean.

DanMpower · 10-12-2020, 06:00 PM

Not a fan, I think the G8x works best with darker colors.

I'm a huge fan of white M cars btw.

evo-mike · 10-12-2020, 06:25 PM

I just picked up this color at Sherwin Williams to paint my kitchen

Dog Face Pony Soldier · 10-12-2020, 06:25 PM

Geez I was just posting that matte automotive finishes are passé, then this thread comes along and I'm not so sure. I don't even like white cars!

Hate the contrasting (machined?) lip on the wheels. Personally, I'd have to paint them so they're monochromatic.
