That’s correct. They are 20/21, not square setup.

Front got PPF about a month ago.

In the UK we don’t have front fender reflectors so I popped out the rears and blacked them out using some gloss black spray paint and fitted the csl drl, they look pretty cool against the oe drl.

I noticed the boot floor is a pain in the ass to lift up, so off I went to see what I could find to fix the issue and found some nylon webbing, made a hoop, glued it together and attached to the pop up flooring.

There’s additional room either side of the battery, ok it’s not huge but the tyre kit and first aid kit fit nicely.

Bit late on updating. Dropped off to storage for a few weeks while I travel. Some highlights so far:

PPF/Ceramic/Tint
BBS LM
KW HAS
R44 Lip/Skirts

Few things to get on the car before MPACT. I’m loving this platform.

If you fold the seats down, it slides/lifts out easily if lifted by the edge next to the seats.

My F82 has that whole space available, but better than nothing. Thx.

Couldn’t tell any difference yet, but lost all coding. Car also stopped reporting OTA to the MyBMW app. I might need to accept a few disclaimers in iDrive to get it back (can’t unlock/lock the car remotely for example)

Good to know that’s what my car came with so hopefully not another update for awhile.

I never paid attention in the other iD8, how often are updates, bi-annually?

8500 miles away, coordinating something pretty epic..

Got proof it actually exists, flying down to KC next weekend to pick it up and knock out the break in drive by Sunday. I'm juiced.

That's the whole reason I'm here, my buddy let taught me how to drive in a cr-x while my 3 series was in the shop, gave me the keys in the afternoon. By the time I realized it's the most fun I've ever had in the car, BMW only offered a 6 speed in their M cars.

Congrats!

I love seeing ZB over Cognac out in the wild. Ordered the same spec and really dig the look.

Not today, but Friday. Picked the car up from its break in service. While it was there I had a few things installed.

• M Performance HAS
• OEM carbon front air ducts
• OEM carbon diffuser
• M Performance carbon rear spoiler
• Carbon side sills
• Door projectors

I had them lower the suspension all the way down. I'm really liking how it sits. I have 10mm, 12mm, and 15mm spacers in the trunk that I'll throw on tonight when I have some time.

I also have the IND reflector deletes, Black M2 badge, and OEM Heritage badges waiting to go on when the car goes for PPF.

Eventuri intake is on backorder, but I already paid so we'll see when that comes. Probably going to order AA DPs in the next few days. I just need to decide whether or not I want to sent out the ECU, or if the Dahler will be enough for me.

Looks great so far. Curious if you get any rub after the front spacer install when wheel is cranked.

That gun metal gray color you opted for looks amazing on that style.

Thank you!

I've been reading about people experiencing rubbing with 15mm in the front too. I'm probably going to run 12 front and 10 rear. If it looks super sunk still, I'll try the 15s and let you know.

While I'm here, can anyone who has the OEM M Performance HAS port installed show me where the sticker inside the door goes? I want to make sure it goes in the right place.

Ravenseal posted the alignment report he received with the port install of the MP HAS kit but don't recall if he also showed the placement of the sticker?

Same! ZB with Cognac. Or at least it will be when my allocation comes through. You go with the black wheels, or the bicolor?

The only thing I'm still unsure about is the interior trim. With cognac seats and other black surfaces in the interior, along with the M highlight panels. I'm worried that carbon fiber or aluminum rhombicle would be too many contrasting colors and patterns. That leaves piano black, but we all know that downsides of that.

Decisions, decisions.
