What did you do to your M2C today?

Pottah · 10-30-2020, 08:57 AM

Watching it go from LBB to AW.

MSRP $1560 compared to $2740

They have a few pictures on their blog: https://www.super-speed.ca/post/rf05...-fitment-guide

They clear the calipers better than the stock 788m wheels for sure.

Very nice!

It seems like they don't have a USA vendor but I wonder how much end cost would be for USA folks. I like the price point (assuming CAD $) since my OG M2 is a daily not a track car

Installed Acexxon lip protector sections under the outer grille sections of the front bumper, and the MP SS pedals.

Thanks KevinM and GarageMadness for the lip protector idea!

NEfan508 · 10-30-2020, 11:02 AM

Note to all, don't be a hillbilly 👨*🌾 like me, properly put your other set of wheels away

I thought, put em in the junk shed will be fine?!? 😑 moving them 100'+ got asphalt rash, little covers would've been great

Ordered $50 @ Amazon, problem solved

The lip protector looks great.

Pedal covers really finish out the interior especially under ambient lighting at night.

Ordered an AA equal length midpipe finally. Probably won't be shipping for a while but I'm excited!
Also going to be flashing Carbahn Stage 1 tomorrow! They sent me the file, just haven't gotten a chance to flash it yet.

Daytona_550 · 10-31-2020, 05:00 PM

Installed Mishimoto charge pipes. Good quality and easy DIY. The only "special" tools were Torx E11 and E12 sockets. Fit was just like oem.

Was hoping to install their OCC as well but it's backordered 8-10 weeks.

Any suggestions for aftermarket rear spoiler other than the M performance one ?

How about CS OEM spoiler custom painted with only the CF showing for a section of the spoiler? Something to make it unique and more complimentary to the car color and yet retain OEM fit and finish.

I may attempt this in near future.

Link? Where you can buy from?

redgs4 · 11-01-2020, 01:19 AM

I had the opportunity to get a [used] exhaust from a local so I no longer have to answer the question, "how am I going to get rid of that droopy rear-end" ...

And I get to skip the long wait for a Dinan exhaust -

That sounds pretty sick. You'll have to post some pics!

I did something similar with the RKP. Had it painted white with a CF strip exposed in the "notch"

that looks nice. thats kinda what I'm thinking about except it would be exposed as you look at it from the back vs painted on the top.

richard in NC · 11-02-2020, 08:50 AM

What I did this weekend...

Two days of track time with the Sandlapper BMW CCA at Carolina Motorsports Park in Kershaw, SC. Only a few other M2s there.

I killed the left front tire. The outside edge was well worn to start and some periods of low tire pressure accelerated the wear. The outer tread blocks eventually started chunking, leaving nothing left for safety or max grip....

No pics of my car there, I just forgot... But I'll work on the GoPro video and post a link to a few laps. I think I got personal best lap times but the recent repaving of the track helped that.

unfortunately no. you have to get it painted. I might have IND do it if they are willing otherwise I can get it paint matched at a local shop using a Spectrophotometer.

Installed the M2CS steering wheel with red m buttons and CF shift paddle. The m1 button feels really mushy for some reason. Maybe I should not trust the eBay parts haha

Daytona_550 · 11-05-2020, 10:00 PM

Changed AS SSK bushings to the hardest compound offered by Ronald. Also replaced the transmission mounts (with Rogue) and upgraded the shifter's rear carrier bushing (Turner).

Some early impressions here:
