M2 night out on the town (London)

Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

With the exterior of the car now complete I headed down to central London with my good friend and photographer (@thatgreattog on Instagram). I've driven past this location many times but it was the first time we actually did a shoot there.

Very nice.. The exterior accents are spot on

Matski · 02-15-2017, 12:32 PM

Was this the car on the Bilstein stand at the Autosport show?

Fantastic execution of the theme, though personally the carbon/paint two tone effect on the bonnet doesn't work for me.

CPWINCH · 02-15-2017, 12:35 PM

amazing! Only thing i would change is change the wheels to 666M (even though I dont like them it would just complete the GTS theme)

Brasko · 02-15-2017, 12:39 PM

It's like a mini-me version of the M4 GTS. Rad!

Jimbooo · 02-15-2017, 01:09 PM

Saw the car at autosport on the bilstein stand as mentioned. Awesome car, I'm not a fan of the m2 personally but seeing this in the flesh did make me consider one in the future.
Can't wait to see interior finished, that area is my biggest gripe with the M2 as standard

Russkey · 02-15-2017, 01:11 PM

Tastefully modified :bravo:

Yes it was indeed. Thought it would be a shame to hide the beautiful carbon and its subtle as the car is MG but I guess its not to everyones taste.

I HATE 666 wheels. If I had a GTS I'd change them but I do appreciate your point. A few people have said that should be done to finish the theme.

Just the look I was going for.

Thanks! The interior is being worked on as we speak. Ready complete with roll cage in 4 weeks or so.

Really like the Acid Orange contrast, it works well on MG!

R0ME0 · 02-15-2017, 01:39 PM

I see side blades added as well. Any info on those?

We modified BMWP ones from the F82 M4 as I didn't like any of the aftermarket options out there.

kezm2 · 02-15-2017, 01:49 PM

Modding done to OEM levels of quality. Looks great

wzj519 · 02-15-2017, 01:57 PM

Love what you did to the M4's little brother.
