An ongoing photo tribute thread to my Mineral Grey M4 UPDATE 7/18/15

Onewheeldrive · 04-15-2015, 04:00 PM

After a month-long honeymoon with my new Mineral Grey M4, I'm seriously in love with this car. The driving experience is second to none. A wonderful balance between performance and driveability. Thus far I have customized to suit my style:

IND painted front reflectors
IND painted rear reflectors
M Performance black kidney grill
M Performance carbon mirror caps
M Performance pedals
30% tint
Custom coding by EAS
Euro MDM
Exhaust valves always open
BMC air filters and charcoal delete
Valentine One hardwire
ESS Piggyback tune on Torque Curve setting III
Vorsteiner brushed silver stainless 90mm exhaust tips

5/11/15:
KW Height Adjustable Springs
Macht Schnell 10mm rear and 15mm front spacers
Toyo Proxes R-888 rubber, 265/30/19 front 295/30/19 rear

7/18/15:
ER Catless Downpipes
Macht Schnell Exhaust Valve Controller
Vorsteiner Forged VSR-163 20"s
Vorsteiner VSR-163
20"x10" 275/30/20 MPSS Front
20"x11" 295/30/20 MPSS Rear

I'll continue updating this thread as the photo journal continues.

UPDATE 5/5/15:
After flogging my baby at the Streets of Willow all day Sunday, I hand clay barred and waxed her and was inspired to take some pics. I love this car! R888's are on the way to replace my shredded PSS tires. I'm addicted!

UPDATE 5/11/15:
New R888 rubber, 10mm rear and 15mm front Macht Schnell spacers, and KW height adjustable springs. Finally sitting where she should!

UPDATE 7/18/15
Evolution Racing catless downpipes
Macht Schnell EVC
New to me Vorsteiner Forged VSR-163 20"s
Vorsteiner VSR-163
20"x10" 275/30/20 MPSS Front
20"x11" 295/30/20 MPSS Rear

Im down. I can let a few of my friends know

VMRWheels · 04-15-2015, 07:52 PM

Looking good! Nice touch with the brushed tips

IM2C · 04-15-2015, 07:55 PM

Looking great. I'm still torn between ordering BSM and MW. This thread didn't help. Now I'm considering MG again.

SherM4n · 04-15-2015, 09:57 PM

Thanks for this. I'm picking up an MG/cloth 6MT car on Saturday.

rubber_ducky · 04-15-2015, 10:01 PM

GrussGott · 04-15-2015, 11:05 PM

best thread title ever. Great pics!

nasdaq100 · 04-16-2015, 05:38 AM

really beautiful

IC3BLAK · 04-16-2015, 06:53 AM

Looks incredible! Especially with those tips!

mul1gan · 04-16-2015, 07:55 AM

very nice... i think the oem side markers in chrome looks nice (i may go back to those) but the blacked out badge blends nicely. where did you get the front grill stickers from?

Daft · 04-16-2015, 08:54 AM

Euro MDM. This requires an ECU flash tune I assume?

No actually, it can be coded. I had EAS do it. Makes a huge difference for street driveabiliy after the ESS tune bumps torque by 60 lb/ft.

Yeah, kept going back and forth on the chrome, but I think it sets it off bs a standard 3/4 series. The vinyl I bought for $10 on Amazon.
