Had to capture the result of an hour spent cleaning the wheels before they were covered in brake dust 50 miles later.

Looks good 👍

The stock / OEM brake pad dust level is a major PITA & the struggle is real. Good weather & great location for an afternoon photo though. Was this the parking structure near the Best Buy in Santa Row... ?

It really is. I feel like I have to clean the wheels every time I fill up the tank just to keep up.

Yep, it sure is! The first pic is also in Santana Row on one of the side streets.

Nice! Are those stock wheels powder coated? Do you mind sharing color specs. Looking for something similar.

Yup, let me ask them to confirm, it was a three stage powder coat.

Is it just me or does anyone else notice varying ride heights on stock setups?

ScottyRyan2019 · 03-16-2024, 03:04 PM

Cold and windy but at least it's dry

yep, think it's a combination of different camera angles, brand new cars vs ones with at least a few thousands miles on them that settles the springs a bit, and lots of people getting the MP HAS port installed on these cars.

....and also shipping blocks being left on cars

Drove the m2 on the tail of the dragon and ran into this beautiful 1m.

EngineerTheVoid · 03-16-2024, 06:53 PM

This angle shows how badly it need spacers and lowering kit.

Oooooo that looks kind of nice 👍

Bought my very first 2-door car. It's not my G80, but I'm digging it. This is it at our car club Christmas party at the BMW Power Lounge at the Nurburgring.

The iND painted lip and that hood really set this car apart from every G87 I've seen to date. Looks great.

Went for a quick sunset drive to the Angeles Crest Highway. Nice view of DTLA but need to find a better spot for the sunset view.

While there, saw an truck/trailer with Mperformance logos. I was wondering what they were up to but they kept driving up the mountain.
