Who won this car? Or it was a scam?

Super nice mod! How did you retrofit it? Uninstall parts of the center console or just pry it out?

That piece pops right up with the pry tool - transfer over the drive mode switch and Wala ...it just works . I believe it will only work if you have a back up camera

Thx mate. Sounds like a fantastic mod. I don't have a back up camera though... any way to verify this, or are you 100% sure?

Actually I got them used from a forum member. He said he got them from e-bay. The fit is great, quality is good.

Red start/stop button. Looks great. It is the way the M2 should have come.

If you don't have a back up camera the button won't be plug and play. A few people did get it to work though after they rewired some things.

That being said you don't need the button anymore. If you get your car an istep update at the dealer PDC will now automatically shut off when you take the car out of reverse. You no longer have to put it in gear and set off to get it to stop making noise.

CF Grilles

IND CF Grille surrounds, not quite as easy to install as the IND video suggests but worth the hand scratches

I guess it depends on what you mean by inexpensive

CF rear winglets - $600
Rough CF steering wheel insert - $200
LED Projection puddle lamps - $40

I honestly get the most comments from the puddle lamps. people really get a kick out of them.
