I'm not normally a fan of the flashy colors (4 of my last 5 cars have been black), but god damn, that looks good!

Well done!

Looks great!! Just out of curiosity
1. What is the ballpark $$$ on wraps with labor
2. Do you have to change anything on insurnace ect? I'm assuming so..

I paid around €1000 and the friend of mine owns Wrapstyle who did it here

You're supposed to change the technical car info to what colour it is but I'm not really bothered so I didn't

The wrap also depends on what material you choose it's hard to give you a ballpark figure.

Looks great. My mum and dad had Techno Violet BMW's in the past (328i Convertible and 318i Compact) and I've been a fan since then!

This is a great shade of purple- congrats

Looks stunning, are you still running the AST 5001 suspension?
Indeed! 5100 series suspension for the M2, couldn't be happier, how did you know?

Very deep purple, you can't tell its wrapped it looks more like a pearlesent paint. public reaction is paint job rather then wrap.

How do you find it? Compared to stock.
oh well i'm glad you took my advice!, the stance is awesome the dampers are better then stock and of course the ride is harder but you can adjust this yourself how soft and hard you want it, in terms of dynamics its second to non its glued to the floor it even took me by surprise!, Camber slightly negative and you're good to go. its a fantastic system, i went in a m2 with m performance or KW and it was hard as nails which for me is not what i want. i am sure you will love it! the rear after some times drops a few more MM once you have driven it for a few thousand KM.

Its a great piece of kit, you can tell its all handmade.

incase you ask, i don't run spacers, its the way the HRE rims are made it looks like i have spacers but they naturally already stick out like so.

Looks good, even though I am not a fan of wraps. I don’t think that it comes close to the quality and brilliance of an individual color, directly from the factory. But as we all know, that was not possible so a wrap is the only way to get the color you fancy.

But I have to say that your wrap is one of the better ones out there and you may have problems to tell if it’s a wrap or from factory.

Thank you sir! It's mostly down to the quality of the wrap, they're are many wraps you can get for less money but the quality is low this is from 3M and also it helps when the person wrapping knows what they're doing too.

Also if you pay good money for a good material it peels off easy, should you buy a cheap Chinese wrap it leaves glue on your actual car! Not recommended.

The color BMW should have offered. Nice work! That hue of purple is a perfect fit for the M2.
