Hahaha, they have to! I can' believe the 2 series (and M2) doesn't have LED rear lights and headlights, whereas a base A class does!

This is my favorite thread in the Photos/Media gallery. Keeping the dreams alive.

Also really appreciate the GIF's you make. Illustrates the changes beautifully.

I know! But I think perhaps BMW does it (same with the E90, and F30) to keep something "refreshable" for the facelift. Of course, cars like the Audi A3 also come with these things standard (at least in the rear) but they are not dedicated performance cars.

InB4 someone mentions the S3.

Maybe I will remodel the entire front to give the CSL a unique identity, time permitting

So here's another view of a stock M2, then with the 1st set of modifications:

1- Front Spoiler and winglets from the MotoGP pace car.
3- Rear winglets from the MotoGP pace car.
2- Wider track front/rear + wider tires.
3- M4 wheels with CCB.
5- Lowered suspension (adjustable coilovers).
6- Non visible in this view is the ducktail.

Here are the photos before/after + animated gif to show the changes...

Of course more colours and mods to come to make this, a one of a kind car!

The drop, wider wheels and that front lip just absolutely transforms the car. I freaken love it.

So used to seeing normal mirrors I didn't even notice.

Now photoshop an S55 in there

Paul-Bracq-BMW · 03-03-2016, 02:13 AM

Now a subtle widebody modification to go with the wider tires and tracks. Looks nice IMO!

This one is just for you, in the same colour as your E36

. Just imagine it has the S55 engine!

Verbiage · 03-03-2016, 06:32 AM

Now I feel like drinking grape juice.

So beautiful. I can imagine a lot of people will be wrapping their cars. These bright colors just suit the M2's character so well

Paul-Bracq-BMW · 03-03-2016, 06:46 AM

I think Phoenix Yellow should be back on the catalogue... And Signal Green added!

Verbiage · 03-03-2016, 06:53 AM

Signal Green saved. Man, that color just does something for me.

Tell me about it... it's going to end up costing $5000 of my beer money

Paul-Bracq-BMW · 03-03-2016, 06:58 AM

One of my favorite colours, the vibrant Santorini Blue!

Well, at least your liver will thank you for it.

True.

It would have been nice if BMW at least offered Austin Yellow as well on the M2. I think that would have really worked on this car.

AY would have been my color choice if I went with an M3/M4, which I just might, if these leasing rates and financing numbers are any indication.

Thank you!

Now I have something to keep me motivated at work.

Other than the mortgage and bills, and stuff.
