Haha I did the same from a mirror tint window

Ha, was not his vehicle. The creep was on foot.

Yes. I love the emoji addition!

Oh nice. It’s Brooklyn and only 200miles so far in 6 days

Couldn't tell from the photo if it was Alpine White or Brooklyn Grey.

I'm still under two weeks and a bit over 500 miles and loving it!

I feel like you're blocking close to 35% of the airflow to the radiator/Intercoolers. I'd rather get pulled over constantly than block the intercoolers. Front plate rules are so dumb, and they're strict in my area as well. Good luck!

50th steering wheel emblem to match the rest on the car. $13 on etsy, sticks over the original emblem.

Same here. And in VA too!

Calling my electrician asap.

Nice! I'm just over 500 miles in just under 2 weeks.

How are you enjoying so far?

I over-laughed at this. Or maybe it was appropriate-laughed.

That is all.

I hear ya, and that was definitely a consideration, but ultimately I decided I didn’t like the look of anything up around the kidneys. And I tell myself it’s not that much different than the radar/sensor on the automatic cars.

What did I do today after work?
Gave her a solid wash, cleaned summer wheels. All in preparation for Bimmers vs. the world event this Sunday.
Hope to see some of you there (if you’re in the Northeast).

Also, replaced color matched front diffuser (which was cracked) with a new CF one.

CadolinaRipr · 03-22-2024, 09:19 PM

Installed the AA single mid today.

What city was it in?

Dingakasteve · 03-23-2024, 08:28 AM

Went and visited mine at the detail shop, just told the guy to do whatever he thought I needed as he’s done a few of my cars and he knows I’ll track it. Saw he did full PPF coverage, honestly I couldn’t even tell it was on there, did very well with the front bumper compared to what I’ve seen from others.

Wayzata. 2 weeks in a row I haven't been able to get through that town without people taking pics of my car.

The population there is only 4,378. I doubt they see many M2’s.

No doubt, I am liking the attention. I'm there a couple times a week for the kiddos karate. And during the warm months I usually drive by the lake to check out cars. 6Smith is also one of our favorite restaurants in the area.

Have not been there in a few years. The times we have gone in the past were enjoyable
