I'm in AZ as well. Hoping to see some more M2's around as I've seen very few in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area. Mine just got to port today, hoping I get it soon.

What's your spec?

I've seen a few around but they're definitely rare to come by

There are a few members on here in the area. ZB personally(south mountain), a BSM up the street(Tempe), a TR I used to see but not sure if still in the area, and another BSM more north towards Carefree/PV. Of course your JG now. I'm sure there are others too but those are off the top of my head. Haven't seen any in the wild though at random in quite a long time other than at Chapman once getting serviced.

Voodoo looks great nice choice.

Thanks! See if I end up getting the car. The ship moored at port hours after the tariffs went into effect. We'll see what happens, but hoping for the best. Ordered the car back in July 2024.

What the hell are the chances of that lol. M2s not common here and JG is rare. I've yet to see one in person but from I have seen if it was available on MY24 I may not have gotten ZB.

Timing seems a tad longer. I ordered mine May of 23 and received Oct 23 for the MY24 back during the prod shortages so assumed things had sped up recently.

It's a must to see in person.
I definitely was slightly regretting the decision the whole wait but once I saw it in person I can't imagine getting it in another color.

Been a little bit since I made any updates. Added gloss black ABS rear bumper spoilers to match the front lip, as well as some carbon upper seat back shells.

tried to install some replica M-Performance side winglets... struggling hard with getting the lower horizontal slat to mate to the car, but I wanted to save 1200$ versus the genuine M-performance ones... hope I didn't make a huge mistake. Got the top slat to mate to the car, just can't get the lower despite the pressure I put on the winglet.

Is the 3M tape just not sticking? May need to clean with alcohol and apply adhesion promoter with fresh tape.

No issue with the tape, the lower portion is just nearly an inch off. circled it below. Bought them from Carbonstar.de here in germany. Seeing if their supplier (i'm assuming in China) might have a defect. They haven't responded yet. I changed the tape they provided with 3M and used a adhesive promoter. Just can't get the gap to close. Sorry for the potato pictures... my camera isn't the best. If I press it any harder i'm flexing the body panel. Gave up for tonight on it.

Ohh I see, that looks way off. Looking at the pictures they show on their website, those bosses should be essentially the same height it would appear

I would say the problem lies with the underside fitment, the fixing holes in the carbon part that you screw to the underside probably needed to be made bigger to allow the underside part to move so that it pulls in the part thats not touching the body, i would do a dummy fit first.
