Are your mirrors wrapped or did you replace the caps?

Just wondering how hard it is to remove/replace your mirror caps? The videos/DIY threads look frightening; they involve just yanking on the cap, and hoping nothing breaks.

They are just wrapped but honestly it hard to wrap and they look like crap up close. I will replace them with the painted ones from IND. taking them off is simple just don't do it when it's cold haha

Update complete!

Big day - lots of money spent.

1)Clear Bra front hood, bumpers, fenders, mirrors
2)roof wrap black gloss + side rails + antenna.

Let me know what you think. I'm loving the wrap. The wrapper went real careful and I was there to watch about 5 hrs of it. Took quite a lot of time.

Could you provide full body shots at different angles? This is intriguing.

Also is there a thread about coding and what's available?

This is from the place that did mine but I'm having the car reset this weekend. It's been acting strange. Only going to add things I really really prefer.

The only reason I would wish that I had a color other than black is so I could make the roof black. Kind of jealous. Lol.

I've used those guys for my 335 and now my M2. Sorry to hear you've have issues...

Also, I see that you had them code torque and power on iDrive. Also Temp and Tire pressure. Aren't those already available on our cars?

So far my M has been fine....

I'm waiting for them to figure how to code the gauge lights on all the time

Yeah I just highlighted a bunch of stuff- unaware of what was already there or thought there was something additional I was maybe missing. lol. I don't know if it's the coding but i figured maybe we should reset to see if it stops acting buggy.

I personally like the shape of the MP knob (more cylindrical than stock); it's very similar to the one I have in my S2000. That's why I got it

Any chance you could take a side-by-side profile photo of the two? Would love to see how the shapes compare. Thanks!
Sorry, I already installed the new one. But I found this on the Internet. Granted it's not the CF knob, but the dimensions are the same. It's a bit shorter, and more slender...

Really helpful thanks, always wanted to see a side by side.
