What did you do to your M2 today? (G87 Edition)

rcouchh · 10-09-2023, 05:39 PM

Alpha wing came in today

M2 CCO · 10-09-2023, 06:35 PM

Mini iPhone photo shoot in the desert! I’ll try to get some more at a different location later today. Not a photographer so iPhone pictures are my limitation!

Think I’m going to paint match the lip and leave wing carbon

I also received 1 rear wheel today

Looks like rest are coming tomorrow.

Car will be very different next week!

I gotta see this car in person! I want to know how that wing will look. What shop are you going to take the wing to for paint matching? I've been debating the alpha-n trunk for that nice duck-tail but so much $$$

Couch weigh those wheels please and what are you going to do with your spoiler that’s on the car now?

Still at the Bremerhaven docks. Maybe early November. . .

Went roll racing at RaceMotive again. The M2 hit a best trap speed of 140.74mph from a verified start. For context, my stock G42 M240i ran ~118mph last year. What a ton of fun.

I used to ride BMX and back in my WRX days I would have had the bike up there.

On the M2 I'm a complete poser. I pretty much promise nothing will ever be attached to my roof rack.

I did it for the looks, but eventually someone is going to get a steal in the member classified section when I get bored of the look.

J15 · 10-10-2023, 05:17 PM

Had some 1000M wheels installed

I have a seasucker (bought it for my Supra) but may be tempted to get the bars in case I ever want to put a bike up there ha. Had a roof rack on my golf tdi, and mini cooper s… the suv just has a permanent trailer
Bike rack on from April to nov

She got her ppf, ceramic coating, tint and black M2 badge done today. Spacers will go on Friday until can get some proper fitting and weighing wheels. Interesting enough they couldn't get the front reflectors out even with heat. Anyone have any suggested tips or tricks on those lol?

Looks great! I was able to get my reflectors out. Used heat and had to separate the inner bumper plastics from the bumper so I could get enough space to separate the glue. It took A LOT of force to get the adhesive to break free. IND has a good video on the install that I followed.

Thanks. Will give it another run after I get her back and check out that vid.

Welcome! I used a microfiber towel to help me press the reflector inward. I was worried about my paint but if you have PPF you have more protection!

Did it for looks!? Who thinks roof racks on a sedan/coupe are cool? I’m sorry but they look like shit and only scream “I can’t afford a truck/suv to haul my hobbies”

What kind of pretentious douchebag sees a roof rack on a sedan/coupe and thinks "That person must not be able to afford an SUV."?

Ever think some people just have no desire to drive an SUV ever?

And here's the kicker!
