Removed old spoiler that was having an issue. iND was nice enough to replace it with a new one! I really really really hate removing adhesive.....

I really like the idea of a Red start / stop button, but I'm concerned about how they look at night.

The stock button is illuminated but only the text; the rest of the button is totally dark. I get the sense that the aftermarket Red buttons glow slightly all over rather than being totally opaque apart from the text.

Would you mind taking a photo of yours at night?

Almost two months behind, but got paint correction and nano coat done. Gotta say, what a world of difference it makes.

The illumination is exactly the same as stock. Only the lettering is illuminated. The button itself has zero illumination.

In my case, it's not the Awron, but the AK-Motion data display.
Loads of more features for a much better price.

I installed mine two weeks ago and actually happen to have pics of the button illuminated and not illuminated.

What I did to the M2 this week...

Test fit my new Motegi Racing MR133 18" wheels with Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4 winter tires (235/40R18) with BMS spacers
Installed the new red start button...
Bring on the snow!

Finally picked up my M2. LBB 2018 (dct) with 4,400 miles, every option, entire car was wrapped in 3M ppf and ceramic coated by the previous owner at a very good shop. Drove it 300 miles back and loved every single mile.

Came from a Volvo S80, what a change.

I'm thinking of adding the dinan midpipe because it could be a little louder to me. I want more burbles.

I can't stop looking at it.
