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

IHateBrakeDust · 10-30-2023, 02:22 PM

Since it is a new car they didn't have it 100 percent perfect they are going to re wrap it after a year it has lifetime warranty. They actually had to wrap it 3 times to get that result. Too many lines in the front I agree but xpel said they will update it.

Added some Halloween features… it goes well with the car’s personality.

I will say my PPF guy also said it was by far the hardest bumper he's done in 10 yrs. Around my emblem didn't turn out perfect but the rest ended up great. He used suntek though and they had a different cutout w/out that headlight seam

Installed the Race Bucket Seat ready for 2yo Grandson's first ride. His mum asked how was the ride? his response,
"Ampa drives FAAAAST"

Guess who's in trouble, again.

Carbon fiber license plate holder. For $100+ you’d think they’d give you the required screws. #highwayrobbery but I still bought it.

Added 50 HP. 🫠

M2PDX · 11-01-2023, 12:48 AM

Took a little drive. Closing in on my 1,200 mile service +

This is on my list. Would you buy it again? It looks great to me.

Found something similar on Amazon for $25. I am guessing I’m only getting 25 hp for the price.

I went with 50th anniversary.

From the picture, it looks like imitation cf...which make $25 a ripoff.

It is imitation, but it was cheap and looks fine imho.

There is no need to remove it …

Picking it up from PPF and ceramic.

At least it comes with hardware covers and bumpers for the back of the plate lol. Just no screws.

Waiting for perm plate to put mine on.

Finally got the front reflector deletes completed and she got a bath.

sacowich · 11-02-2023, 06:54 PM

Slapped on rear bumper trim inserts (Autotecknic). BMW version price is ridiculous. My feelings are mixed. Might improve with more aggressive rear diffuser (waiting on MHC). Opinions welcome.

Nice. I got those on as well. What tint level is that? Going tinting tomorrow, so trying to decide.

15 Kavaca Ceramic IR Window Film from their nano ceramic line. Anti ir/uv/glare etc to help with the summers.

Yeah, after checking the rear out after a few days. Most definitely.

If that's the M performance CF plate frame you can find it on Amazon from some vendors for about $20-30 less than direct. Not a huge difference but it's something.

M Division · 11-03-2023, 03:30 AM

Installed a new set of test springs from a very well known brand.

Huge improvement in aesthetics, rides comfort is identical to stock but slightly lower COG and less roll and pitch. Slightly better steering feeling but I still need an alignment done.

Perfect as BMW intended surely...
