WOW!! Your car looks amazing. The M2C should’ve come from the factory with that M performance hood. It compliments the widened fenders so well.

The car has just arrived back from the panel shop, where they have done nothing short of an incredible job. The MP parts that have been added have given the car such an aggressive and unique look. The tips definitely needed an upgrade from the standard 70mm tips and just fills the back of the car up so nicely. Each part has in my opinion enhanced the car so much more. It is truly starting to look like a proper M now.

Lots more to come...

Parts that have been added in this update:

- MP CF Hood
- MP CF Front Lip
- MP CF Rear Spoiler
- MP CF Winglets
- Sprayed exhaust
- VRSF 90mm tips

M2C shares the exact same tips as the M3/M4, the VRSF rolled tips are like the BMS tips that are completely slip on, no welding required and has the centre pin alignment cutout. Since you are looking for CF tips, I could possibly recommend looking at CYBA tips or looking through the M3/M4 sponsor section for CF tips. Unlike the OG M2 that had a straight cut, the M2C has the slanted cut on the exhaust pipe that allows for many more options.

Thanks for the tip gonna look around! I found these but would you trust any not name brand exhaust tips? https://www.ebay.com/itm/Fits-BMW-M1...ty!34747!US!-1

I have seen these in person, they are not that great to be very honest.

Maybe something like this? Or are you looking for gloss CF?

I'm hoping for a gloss, I currently have the M performance front splitter side skirt rear diffuser and rear lip. Gold 763m rims on Long Beach Blue, car doesn't come in for 3 more weeks or I'd post photos. I want the carbon fiber to be glossy just to match the gloss on the M performance parts

Get hold of VRSF, they should have what you looking for:

I found a good price on the M ones I almost feel like purchasing and worst case if I don't like them in person I can return them. Hoping they'll fit but for $200 for a set of 4 I feel like I can't go wrong. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F112975561057

*** Update 09/11/18 ***

Today was a pretty big and exciting day. All MP Interior parts were installed, this included the custom work and parts acquired from IND. I truly cannot express how damn good INDs work really is . I was not 100% convinced on the whole dry carbon look, but it honestly has grown on me at a rapid rate. In addition to this the CF rear diffuser was installed (this was seriously not a joke to get the standard diffuser off ) and the VRSF tips were adjusted and pushed in completely.

During the whole process I was watching how people were coming past and staring at the M2C, even some non BMW owners were commenting on how the M2C with all the parts is setting itself apart from the competition. One thing I myself have noticed during this whole process is how much more aggressive the car can actually get with all the MP parts. I think the M division has FINALLY started to up their game, but in the same breath do wish very much that some of these parts could have been selected from the factory. Looking at how the 850i M has a CF option, I wish the same was available to the M2C - it just makes more sense.

I think out of all of the interior parts, the Autotecknic CF paddles took the cake for me - they just make the steering wheel feel that much better and the look is just... (yes the MP Steering Wheel helps as well).

Today was one of those days that I just could not take the smile off of my face! Can I just get my damn car now please!

Up next is the suspension and spacers...

Got some snaps of the car getting the suspension and spacers done. Also some low quality snaps of the car in the basement, waiting to get collected for detailing and PPF.

Job done really well! I like how you painted the muffler and how it looks so much better. It should be a M Performance product that paint.
