What did you do to your M2 today?

PLF69 · 09-03-2018, 06:14 PM

I'm doing full, surprisIngly it seems cheaper local to me than you guys in the states and thats an autorized Xpel installer.

Full: 3500$cad

front (bumper,hood,fenders): 1500$cad

front + rear quarters: around 2000$cad, I did not ask precisily.

Also consider bigger piece rear fenders.

Going to talk to my installer tomorrow and see what all my options are. He's done some one off custom stuff for me in the past. Not looking forward to the quote ;(

The nice thing about the bigger fender piece is it follows the horizontal body line so it's hidden better I think and protects more

I appreciate the advice. After driving her home 200 miles on the coast, the amount of dirt build up on the rear fender piece is really noticeable, especially on white. My ppf bill is increasing rapidly here...

Well after it's in the car and paid for you'll forget about the check you wrote and just be driving the car

Decided to go a different direction with my brake calipers...

PolishM2Power · 09-06-2018, 10:29 PM

Did a full wrap to protect the car! I love it in this color.

Love the color but a wrap isn't designed to protect the car like PPF would. It's much much thinner. While the color change is amazing and awesome the protection added from the wrap will be almost negligible. It might assist in protecting the paint against bird shit or light scratches but it won't be stopping any pebbles or road debris.

Just purchased some OEM european aspherical wide angle mirror glass for my M2 and 328. Not cheap at $325 a set but if they help prevent just one accident then they pretty much pay for themselves.

You can purchase them and get more info here: https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1515615

What color was it before the wrap? Just curious...

(If you had included a photo with the hood up, I bet I could have figured it out.)

It's the Performance Edition so it only came in Alpine White. I installed some parts on it, next up is the Steering Wheel

White, obviously

PolishM2Power · 09-07-2018, 10:28 PM

The color really looks completely different in the sun

Put my track pads on for my next event in two weeks! Pushed through a pint of RBF 600 too.

Beakster · 09-10-2018, 07:43 PM

Paint correction yesterday...
Cracked the windshield today...not even 600 miles on the car. Going in this Friday for ppf and window tint. I've been staying off the freeways until this Friday's install too...didn't hear any impact on the windshield.

DanG · 09-11-2018, 05:40 PM

Replace the original M2 badge with the M2 Competition badge.

Poffman · 09-11-2018, 10:11 PM

Put on my new plate....

just blaze · 09-13-2018, 05:36 AM

Not today but finally got my RKP spoiler and Cyba tips on over the weekend. The factory adhesive was a pain to get off.
