While I'm here, can anyone who has the OEM M Performance HAS port installed show me where the sticker inside the door goes? I want to make sure it goes in the right place.
Mine is on the bottom of the Drivers Side door frame below all the other stickers. I can take a picture in an hour or so.

I did nothing to the M2 today, let it rest over the weekend. It was nice to give the E46 some love as it’s been very neglected. While it never felt quick, it feels like a total dog now, handling and feedback is still amazing and the tiny steering wheel feels downright antique but I do love it. Just flipped 38k on this old bird. That’s probably about it for awhile.

The fitment is awesome, but if it rubs a lot I'm going to order a set of 10s from future classic and throw the 12s on the rear.

Fitment is perfect though like this, I will say.

Oh, I guess I installed spacers today.
So the 15mm rub. Are you going to test 12mm on front or go straight to 10mm? And ultimately you would be doing 10f and 12r?

High flow DPs, EL mid and their axle back. The car sounds phenomenal, check out the thread I just made on it.

12mm front and 10mm rear is what I'll get if this really becomes an issue. For now I'm going to let it ride and see what happens.

I just got to the restaurant we're picking up dinner from and I haven't heard any rubbing since I left. It might just be only at full lock and in reverse.

I had them lower the suspension all the way down. I'm really liking how it sits. I have 10mm, 12mm, and 15mm spacers in the trunk that I'll throw on tonight when I have some time.

I also have the IND reflector deletes, Black M2 badge, and OEM Heritage badges waiting to go on when the car goes for PPF.

Eventuri intake is on backorder, but I already paid so we'll see when that comes. Probably going to order AA DPs in the next few days. I just need to decide whether or not I want to sent out the ECU, or if the Dahler will be enough for me.
Looks great!
How do the M Performance HAS ride?

The same thing happens to me in full lock and reverse with 18 front and 15 rear spacers. Interesting how it’ll be tomorrow when I get it lowered on KW HAS.

Thanks! Mine is as low as it can go and I haven't noticed any difference in ride quality.

At first I didn't think they were low enough, but they've really settled out nicely. I don't think I'd want to be any lower than this.

I really want to go with the MP HAS as well!! How does it feel? The ride height is exactly what I’d like it to be

Doesn't feel any different than the first 1200 miles I drove before swapping to the MP HAS. Very happy with this set up.

The only thing I'm still unsure about is the interior trim. With cognac seats and other black surfaces in the interior, along with the M highlight panels. I'm worried that carbon fiber or aluminum rhombicle would be too many contrasting colors and patterns. That leaves piano black, but we all know that downsides of that.

Decisions, decisions.
Sweet! You clearly have excellent taste.

I went with bicolor wheels and aluminum trim (manual, blue calipers, moonroof, shadow line, HUD). I tend to agree with you, though, and wasn’t thrilled with any of the trim options. But gloss black wasn’t happening for sure.

I don't /love/ CF as a pattern or material, but with the CF you get rid of the plastic-y silver on the steering wheel, which I think adds a huge aesthetic bonus over the other options.

Excellent point. The steering wheel with CF is a nice upgrade compared to the silver plastic trim. Now I’m kinda regretting my decision

KW HAS was installed today, car still rides smooth as stock. Will let the springs settle for 2 weeks and do an alignment.

5 minutes with a heat gun will solve the rubbing. It was the same on my G80 with 18 mm spacers up front.
