I tried going to realoem.com, but when I put in that part number, it came back with "The specified part 51772462918 was not found."
Sticker set(hood, bumpers, etc): 51142463327
Side sill left: 51772462917
Side sill right: 51772462918

Use etkbmw, instead of realoem.

I'd always thought I was going to get HS but when I went for a test drive earlier in the week, saw a SO in the showroom as well and it just grabbed both my wife and my attention. Been deliberating over which colour to pick obsessively all week and then saw your pics this morning which helped me decide!

Placed an order tonight for a 6MT m2 comp in sunset orange with the "black" wheel option. My first M car - can't wait!!

My 2020 M2C

Seeing a lot of hate on this color but when I saw it in person I thought it was awesome and had to scoop one up. Enjoy, some obviously taken by a pro some straight from my phone.

Probably the best looking color on this car in the sun.

People hate on it but just ignore how great it looks in sunlight. A really great color for this car.

All of the M2C finish options have a lot of appeal compared to similar finishes from other manufacturers. The metallics (flake) used in all but AW create amazing range of color effects for each finish.

In different lighting...
BS ranges from matte graphite to piano black.
HS ranges from matte white to pale concrete gray.
LBB ranges from matte sky blue to a dark navy blue.
SO ranges from matte copper to dark chocolate.

Where SO really stands out from the others (to me) is its dramatic firey mid-range.

I think the reason a few people passionately dislike Sunset Orange is because one can't simply select a static color, rather one must accept what ever they get under the conditions. If one simply wants a bright orange or a candy red car, this color will probably be dissapointing most of the time.

Catching a glimpse of this color in mixed bright sunlight however, is like... well its a lot like watching the Sun set.

I think it's a close call between this, LBB, and BSM on the car. Right now leaning to order LBB because I am not sure I like when SO looks very bronze. Anyone that says this is an awful color is wrong, though. Having seen all options in person, I think HS is the worst color on this car, strangely enough. SO seems to work best with the black wheels also, in my opinion.

"Teal in the Sunlight" blue.
"Brown under Moonlight" orange.

Some people don't notice TitS or BuM.
It's the first thing I see. It often gets me in trouble. Probably like this post.

I think LBB is teal most of the time! It’s basically a darker version of snapper rocks or Atlantis.

Does that make me a TitS man?
