Brutal. Just brutal.

Apart from fender flares and quad pipes, there isn't much about this car that is visually more exciting than the m235i.

Depends on whether you like the fangs on the front bumper and or the bulky back bumper I guess...

Agreed! Stripes may work on AW but not on LBB! IMO.

Those stickers make it appear very cheap looking.

The stripes just don't match with the car's color.

Stripes is a German BMW tuner thing... Just think about Hartge, AC Schnitzer, Alpina etc. They all had/have these stripes. A bit 1980ies perhaps, but looked good on some models. E28 Hartge for instance, stripes is a big part of that car IMO.

The blue M2 and stripes was not a good combination though...

Looks awful, especially on a blue car. They might look acceptable on a white or black M2.

... Usually, I just leave it in gear - no need for the handbrake if it is on a flat surface.
Haha french people give a shit about cars. In Paris people park there cars without pulling the handbrake or putting a gear in so they can push the car to make space.

Think LLB requires ghost stripes, so as to not take away from the perfect color. Maybe ghost in two or three hues that are in the blue.

Otherwise leave it alone

I've seen this in Boston and Paris, actually heard the person say as they got out of the car, "That's why they call them bumpers"

This car doesn't look good with these wheels, almost like a regular 2-er.

Not for me but I think they did a fairly nice job on the design and placement.

Edit: just saw the pics of the AW with the stripes and think they are gross.
