Installed the SLiPLO bumper guards today. Only few adjustments were needed to perfectly fit the m performance cf front lip 👍🏼

Finally did the deed! Painted the awful muffler in high temp flat black paint. Since I was already working on that area, I figured I might as well also swap out the tips with 90MM Black Chrome Slanted tips which I purchased from a member on the F80 forums.
Some tips for those who want to DIY the above: * Remove the OEM tips using a rubber mallet and piece of wood -- trust me, its much easier and quicker than the hammer and mallet IND method. * Prepped the muffler by giving it a good scrub with Isopropyl Alcohol * Overspray on the body will likely be minimal, but be sure to cover up the diffuser * Layered one light coat and let it dry over night; applied second coat 24 hours later and drove around for 20 minutes to let it bake * Using ramps helped get good coverage underneath and behind the muffler * I made the mistake of not spraying the muffler in the gap above the tips so now theres still a bit of silver shining through which is miniscule but does bother me -- so make sure to hit upper areas as well. I did this mod last week, and drove the car this past weekend for about 4 hours without any noticeable issues with the paint job so hoping it holds up for at least a year. Well worth it and I've already received multiple compliments on the tips and resprayed muffler. Before: Prepped: After:

That's actually brilliant! I should actually paint my whole car VantaBlack to actually live up to my licence plate

Just had her Ceramic coated and had high impact PPF installed by Graham and his team at Azuri Car Care in Stevenage (UK) and they have done an amazing job. It has transformed the car and I couldn’t recommend them highly enough! (sorry for the grainy image, took a still from a video)

Also thinking of putting CF winglets, not sure if I put $250 from eBay vs $500 from RW carbon vs $850 M performance once ones. |

VRSF DP, and BM3 stage 2. I haven't truly pushed her yet, give it few days but it feels awesome! IMO drop in filter, DP and a tune is a excellent combo.

Installed the IND Glossy Red M1/M2 buttons, then I removed them since IND now has them in a Matte Red. The Matte looks so much like OEM, I'm very happy with them. Illumination between M1 and M2 are spot on.
These are the Matte finish buttons in the pictures. https://ind-distribution.com/product...-m2-button-set
