If I knew that I can afford a new GT3 RS every year, I would be more relaxed, too. But right now, the M2 is a high priority in my life and that makes it another story imo.

Stealth MG =

gtaM2 · 05-24-2016, 10:11 AM

if money is not a factor then go for it, it will definitely look great

SliChillax · 05-24-2016, 08:48 PM

It's expensive and I'd rather improve the handling or power for that much but if I did have the money, I definitely would.

fatumpsch · 05-24-2016, 09:48 PM

Yes. If you are asking, you can afford it.

Frozen looks great on this car. Check of the frozen LBB on this forum if you haven't seen it yet. That made me appreciate frozen for the first time and REALLY appreciate it.

Please do it and post pics.

alterrain · 05-24-2016, 11:36 PM

Yes!! Frozen please and post photos.

gingiman · 05-28-2016, 04:32 AM

The car arrived finally.
Leaving all the factory stickers on and driving it straight to installer.

He did his MG M4 frozen and it looks amazing.
Only concern i have is getting bored with it after a while. Would hate to have to peel away the whole thing...

Anyway, going for it nonetheless. He said it will take him the whole week O.o
moar waiting 😟

That's exactly the route I went. Was all excited to get my car then drove it straight home on Saturday and left it in the garage until delivery to XPEL the following Monday. I didn't get my car back until a week and a half after that.

Waiting was painful but it was totally worth it. Can't wait to see yours!

Found an M3 with XPEL Stealth in this thread below. Looks sick!

Love it. Please post pictures once yours is complete. I'm stuck between AW and MG. If I go MG, it will be because I've convinced myself to go full stealth. If I ultimately can't justify it, I'll be going with AW.

Smiley1175 · 06-04-2016, 06:58 PM

That M3 looks amazing. Definitely frozen on MG is the go.
Can't wait to see the M2 when it's done.

Aust350z · 06-04-2016, 07:52 PM

Jaw-dropping beautiful.

Even better than the real thing.....

gingiman · 06-06-2016, 07:35 AM

Sorry to disappoint,
Going with clear xpel on bumpers and bonnet only

Apologies to those who waited for frozen MG pics.

blackholescion · 06-06-2016, 12:11 PM

Well despite not going with stealth, I'm sure you made the best decision for yourself. The car will still be fantastic because MG!

Even though I don't have a production number yet, I'm still planning on stealth so might not have to wait too much longer

. The more pics people post the more my decision is confirmed.

gingiman · 06-06-2016, 03:12 PM

Thing is I waited to see the MG M4 that was done frozen at the same shop.
Somehow the work didn't seem perfect...
I was expecting -0- faults and not finding the sticker showing anywhere, but when you get up close and look through the tricky areas such as bumpers and stuff it just didn't look good enough.
was worried i'd get peeved off and end up peeling the whole thing off.
would be too much of a waste.

Ended up going with the bumper&bonnet parts which he had printed on the plotter and are planned perfectly imo. Can't do stealth with the plotter since it leaves out too many parts which would show due to the contrast, not a problem with clear.
Anyhow, color is great, happy I went MG (same as my m135). Maybe i'll get it stealthed in a year or so when I start getting bored with the color.
The car is a joy to drive and every time I park it I can't wait till I drive it again.
Drive careful you all, and happy hunting
