Instead of blasting all my new pix in various threads, I thought I'd just make a thread of my own where I could drop any new pix I take with the new combo.

Hope you guys enjoy the pix!

First pic shows the stock matte black vs the EVO Grey in the same lighting, although in pix the EVO Grey is *appearing* a bit darker.

A few more.

And finally with the new 4" AWE Tuning exhaust tips, which I ADORE.

You are quite the photographer, love the photos!

These are all wallpaper worthy, what are the chances you would do a M2 Comp front bumper retrofit later on?

No chance. There are definitely things I prefer about the M2C front bumper, but the grill would keep me from having them.

At some point I'll have a CS, so it won't matter, I'll get it by default, but this car will remain OG.

For some reason 763M's just don't look quite right on OG M2's. That color grey is cool though wish they did that from the factory.

Interesting that you would say that, I don't think they look right on the M3/M4, the spokes are too thin for such a heavy looking car. First time I saw them on an M2 I was like, yup, that fixed it. But I'm pretty classic, I like robust looking wheels on large cars, and thin spindly wheels on small cars.

Moar pix of the wheels in full sunlight, por favor.

I think I like your ferric grey wheels better.

I like the Ferric's myself, and I'll be keeping them as my Winter set, but the attitude of the 763 is just on another level, and more fitting for the car. I think it's really hard to see attitude in pictures, and it can be sort of tricky as well. IRL the Ferric 437's look so beautiful, almost like jewelry, up close, but as you get further from the car they just give the overall appearance of "pretty", as opposed to "tough." The 763's aren't nearly as pretty up close, but they are tough as nails as you back away, and really give the car so much more presence.

I'm not a fan of full sunlight on cars, usually, so these three pix are about as good as that's going to get.

This, exactly!

I love these on your LBB M2. I will be copying you on my 2021 LBB M2c. My car was just built this week and is at "quality check", I can't wait!

Are your wheels OEM powder coated? 19x9 & 19x10?

EDIT: I see the M performance engraving..

They're OEM 763M 19x9 & 19x10, but I had them refinished in EVO Grey, which is similar to BMW Orbit grey.

The color is what I meant. I like the shape of both sets of wheels.

Yeah, Ferric is nice, but it's kind of "pretty" as well (to my eye).

I WISH I could see Ferric beside Orbit, and then also beside my EVO. It's amazing to me that no one has ever taken a picture of Ferric beside Orbit. Weird, that.

Direct morning sun, no color editing. I removed the CA fringing from the lens, and the rust color from the rotors, but the rest is real.

They're quite a bit lighter than the original finish, but still not what I'd call medium. Like a medium-dark.

You just need to get the carbon or blacked out grills, it will add the last touch you need

Reminds me of the Quadrifoglio wheels.

The ceramic coating is curing on them as I write this .

I adore that top wheel, even did a chop to see if it'd work on the M2 because I love it so much!! But sadly, it doesn't look right on the M2, even though I could force it to fit.
