You can just grab grab a plasti-dip can and spray it yourself

Edit: But not sure how it will stand the heat from the exhaust

Those seats are not my favorite, that decal looks cheesy. Luckily you can order the base seats.

I know of people that have used it on their exhaust tips, but not their mufflers. I'd be worried it would catch fire.

Yea, I edited my post. It's probably not a good idea.

This might work, it's high temperature muffler/header paint.

I still think they could have done a better job hiding that huge ass muffler. It even ruins the side view too.

I was thinking the exact same thing. People are worried about the weight gain? Looks like that muffler weighs about the same as a great dane.

Yeah, seriously, that muffler is big. I wonder if that's some of the extra weight , maybe it isn't all at the front of the car afterall.

Maybe they fixed the weight distribution AND the S55 sound at the cost of a 80's Samsonite suitcase looking exhaust.

Yeah, HS seems to change depending on the lighting, which is kind of cool.

Hopefully the muffler won't be as obvious in real life. I thought the same think about the F80's muffler, and know I don't even think about it.

Thanks for the pictures and video!

The M2 competition's muffler looks pretty bad in my opinion, was really looking forward to the M2 competition but don't think I'm going to go for it unless that muffler can be changed, perhaps an M performance exhaust will be available for the car that hides or has a smaller muffler.

It might be a way to balance the car, bigger muffler with a cpl house brick inside. An oil drum comes to mind.

Don't the M Sports seats offer more support than the base seats? Or do they just look different, and come with the integrated headrest?

The cad pics even show some of the pipe at the back. It's is a big put off, If it looked like the MPE you could except it. How's it going to look after some miles on the clock
