What did you do to your M2 today?

Looks great! BSM over silver is a winner.

Agreed I’m loving how it changes the look!

I look forward to warmer weather

Wish it came without the blue strip

Installed Dinan HAS last week. Did the max up front and about a quarter in the rear.

Those CS Jet Black 763M's look fantastic on LBB. Well done sir. Needs a set of Cup2's to complete the look

I know it's early still, but how do you like the Dinan setup compared to stock? It's sounded to me like a good compromise between just doing springs, which I'm wary of, and a coilover setup, which I'm not sure I need.

Did a good amount of research here on the forum to get feedback on the Dinan vs KW vs MSS. I don’t daily or track the car so the HAS kit made all sense to me. My goal was to slightly lower the vehicle and have a more compliant ride and can confirm that Dinan came through. I did thought about Mperformance Coils but i’ll consider that down the road once i need to replace my shocks. Didn’t really consider just doing springs. Overall, im very happy with the Dinan HAS. Waiting for the springs to settle then get an alignment and make a little adjustment. A tad too low in the rear or i’m just getting a little too old!

They're oem from the m3/m4, specific color is called ferric grey. I bought for winter, the 437's that came with the car are currently hanging on the wall with summer tires

Alcantara the hell out of the center stack …

Nice! Running any spacers?

Yes, 12mm front and 10mm rear. No issues at all.

Appreciate the feedback. My goals as of now are similar - I do daily it and do some autox from time to time, and would like to get it on the track to try an HDPE soon, but I'm not trying to dial the car in for either of those applications. I'd like it a little lower and a little more compliant without changing its overall nature. I'd had this impression of the Dinan HAS from other comments so glad to know it's holding true for you. Looks great!

Looks great. Getting rid of the gloss black is huge.

Today is Volk day

Air filters today (cabin and engine intake). I bought my M2 used at the beginning of the year and really wasn’t sure about the state of the filters — I’ve been assuming they’d been replaced on time by the previous owner.

While getting the engine bay airbox opened up, I found that the clip that’s normally hidden from view under the steel brace is completely missing. Makes me glad I checked the filter! I’ll have to order a new clip, I suppose.

The engine intake filter was a little dingy, but not too bad. You can see the old one on the left and new on the right.

k_mann · 12-23-2022, 11:23 PM

Tested the winters out today. Loads of grip, the m2 is incredible in the snow

Nice

Sometimes the clip will be just sitting as such that you can still see it down below

But the box has to be totally out for you to see below w clarity

Not sure why they don’t make them so they stay put

Definitely easy to drop one
