When I had my 2007 Z4 Coupe I had a lip on it and this was supposed to be glued on with something that looked like silicone...
It's super thin, low profiled, attached to the entire portion of the lip that adheres to the trunk. I'm positive it'll be undetectable after it's installed.

Story Begins Today - Signed Sales Order

Inked the sales agreement today and now have a new LLB 6MT M2 being put into production for me. Dealer indicated they had an immediate slot which I’ll believe when I have the official build information. I am hoping for a mid to late March delivery to miss the winter here in New York and put off the winter tires until Fall. Took me a full three days to find a dealer willing to sell at MSRP. The M2 is a low production car but it isn’t as rare as dealers are trying to claim. Every day seems I find a new M2 or a very low mileage (under 3k) becoming available; albeit some of the new ones are listing almost $10k over MSRP. Most dealers are trying to get between $2,500 and $5,000 over MSRP which I would not do out of principle. I am thrilled to be back in a BMW after selling my 2009 E92 M3 (140,000 miles) in 2013. Now I wait, wait, wait

It is. From above it looks like that. Straight rear it looks good. Although I am pushing the tips back into the bumper by and inch to combat that

I love it even more every time I see your car since mine will look very similar. How much did the CQuartz coating run you? Appreciate in advance. I was quoted $1500 for my new Infiniti Q50S seven months back.

Fitted the ASD ByPass harness, disconnected centre dash speaker, installed new Eatons in front and JL Audio's in rear.
Huge improvement over the stock HK system and loving the "no drone" and pure platform for sounds now the fake exhaust isn't being pumped in to the cabin.

Wrapped my grill with gloss black 3M vinyl for $14 (saved myself ~$200-300) came out great, got a 35% tint + PPF installed.

Thank you! I love it even more every time I look at it!! The cquartz was $1200. Here's a cloudy outdoor pic from today

Mine keeps on lifting. The grill is just too deep so pulls from inside! How did you get it to stretch?

Wife's hair dryer, that and the 3Ms 1080 film stretches a LOT with heat. I have it wrap all the way around to the inside around the grill.
