zfzkev | Midnight Purple '24 M2

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

Hello all, This is my first BMW I previously owned MR2s and WRXs and Tesla Model 3 Performances and some boring ish in between. After being in a Model 3 Performance since 2018 I'm back on that gas. I was very close to getting a 45th Anniversary Supra but the improved interior of the M2 and the bonus of some jump seats in the back for kiddos swayed me to the M2...



Mod List:
Interior
JQ Werks MadTrace Clubsport Paddles - Amazing Feel over stock and if you're into mechanical Keyboards you will love these.
M Performance Alcantera Arm Rest
M Performance Floor Mats
M Performance Door Sills

Exterior
Innozetek Midnight Purple by @wrap.magic on IG
TRE ID-01 Spoiler
SE Coating and Fab Oil Cooler Guard @legendary_track_experience on IG
Zunsport Center Grille
MS+ Yellow DRLs
M Performance Carbon Inlets
IND Carbon Roundels
Black OEM M2 Logo
Autotecknic Carbon Antenna Cover
Adro Front Grille
Adro Carbon Splitter
Adro Carbon Sideskirts
Adro Carbon Diffuser
Adro AT-R3 Swan Neck Wing (not installed yet)

Performance
Exhaust - TFL Italy Full Exhaust w/ resonators Thanks to DailyDownshift. This sounds the best IMO of all the combos I've heard so far and something about the metalwork with those resonators is so sexy.

Wheels/Suspension
TE37s in OG Bronze
Front: 20X10 +8 PS4S 285/30/20 * Spec (OEM Rears)
Rear: 20X11 +15 PS4S 305/30/20
Springs: Eibach Pro Kit
Millway Camber Plates
Raceseng Titanium Wheel Stud Conversion
Raceseng Titanium TNS-2 Lugs

I firmly believe that Adro grille is the single biggest improvement that can be made to the front end of this car. Wish BMW has designed it this way.

Car looks amazing! Look forward to any future progress!

Thanks a lot! Yes I agree 100%. It fixes the front end for me over the horizontal grilles and was the one mod I knew without a doubt I was going to do. Shame it’s so expensive for a small piece but a must have.

Beautiful car. I’m pleased to see another purple M2.
To me g87 looks amazing in darker colors. Too bad only black is offered.

How’s the ride on those rear 305s?
I want to do that after I burn thru my p zeros.

This will look awesome once it's dropped. Not a fan of the wheels though, too JDM.

Oh man, so many awesome mods!!! The metal working of the TFL Italy exhaust makes me cream every time I see it haha

Congrats on the build, I wish you many smiles per mile

Totally I would of loved to have gone with a much flashier color but I just don’t think it fits the car. 305s still on the way prolly be a few weeks to get tires moved around and find time to throw the springs on

Yeah I hear that I don’t think they fit the car 100% I think BBS LMs are the best looking wheel maybe ever and on this car. Something about the side profile and the hips just reminded me of an R34 and I’ve wanted TE37s since 1998. We will see I might not love them but at least that’s the good thing about TEs you can resell fairly easily.

Thanks for sharing! Great work on the car so far, looks amazing. I too was in line for the 45th Supra before switching to the M2 and have loved every minute of it with no regrets. I hadn’t heard anyone else have hints of R34 when they look at the body lines before but that is exactly how I feel as well. Just subtly there but I see it.

Very jealous of the overall build but would disagree regarding the ardo grill. I am not a fan of the vertical grill on this body. Much prefer the CSL style.
