Well I did have 2 cars to do, and I will say its been a couple years since I have gotten tires, but it always seemed to take way to long.

Maybe there are better now or I don't have the hookup.

YMMV

Did a couple of mods

- M4-style CF spoiler.
- Red start-stop button.
- AK-Motion display

All in all i think i increased the amount of HP with +50 with just the button and the spoiler.

The display is very cool though.

Your rear tires look a bit wider than normal, no?

Spot on. I went with 255/275 MP4S when replacing to be same as M3/M4 spec. Transformed the car.

Moved to Stage 1 91 from the ACN 91, and did the full Thor GTS flash for the DCT, diff, etc.

I started with the first level (road and track?) and found it to have neutered the car, especially in sport where it would prioritize upshifting far too much. GTS seems much better, and the data logs look great with 91 from 76, with about 5oz of Boostane premium in the tank.

That is the same setup I have.

It's just a badge. Remove the foam insulation pad & unfold the tabs that hold the badge on.

Nicely done

It looks way better with it vs without it

Nicname · 04-24-2021, 10:58 AM

Autocouture did all the CF bits. Only thing I did was the steering wheel trim

AndrewC1989 · 04-24-2021, 11:38 AM

Car wash cracked my windshield this morning. Someone must've pressed the wiper release when lifting wipers to clean glass and the metal hinge came down

Fortunately they're very well connected and sending the car to my preferred dealership to replace with OEM glass and calibrate properly.

Dude that sucks, but at least you're getting it fixed properly.

The owner did the right thing without any hesitation and I already had like 2-3 small stone chips prior to this, so as unpleasant of a scenario as it was I've decided to see it as a blessing in disguise.

I cringe at the thought of a stranger washing my car

Glad they're stepping up and handling it

Good thing you noticed

Yes, luckily I was watching.

I know what you mean, I used to wash the car myself but I'm just no longer interested in spending hours cleaning it on Saturday only to watch it be dirty again by Monday. Think this will probably be my last black car, lol.

Black is definitely a part time job so I know exactly what you mean

Grey is as close as I've ever gotten to a Black car

Dark colors definitely look best on M2

When clean Black looks so mean

Dude, I'm the same way, like, it's an impossibility. No slagging those that get it done, my old boss had his Viper done weekly, but man, I'm so damn particular, no way I'd let anyone touch my car.

Matt Devo · 04-24-2021, 05:38 PM

installed some minty fresh M2C seats

Came out of a car that was immediately stripped and turned into a dedicated track car, have ~1k miles at most on them

Correct

Even my wife needs to keep her distance
