Granted, its a 2min install, but this really can make a visual difference in the engine bay. They also come in Individual colors now too!

If you have followed since my 435i or F87 M2C days, you know how much I love Active Autowerke and the quality of their products. I knew before I even ordered my G87 M2 that I would be running their exhaust on the new car as well.
The biggest thing I noticed about the G8X line is the exhaust is really tame for such a great car and motor, and this is the way to fix it. The new axleback exhaust is excellent, and pairs perfectly with their equal length midpipe as well. This is the full install DIY if you would like to do the work for your BMW G8X, and I will have a full exhaust tone comparison out next week! Check it out, I love the sound of my G87 M2 now very much. Moderate in efficient mode, and more than spicy enough for me with a deeper note in Sport Plus. Exactly what I wanted with the M2.

After a full SEMA level detail, I had a pro photographer do a full series on the car, and its truly impressive. Here are a few shots that aren't in the other big photo dump thread.

Latest DIY is up!
One of the best ways to dress up your engine bay, is Downstar! I had a similar kit on my previous M2, and knew I wanted to get the kit for the new M2 as well. This guide could be used for almost all of the G8X line, of the M2, M3 and M4. Downstar also has an absolute rainbow of colors, so you can match or contrast anything you want with your build. Check it out!
