Of course it's actually not too difficult.

That Swissvax Handbook has to be the most comprehensive detailing manual I have ever seen. My detailing habits are about to get a much needed overhaul. Great info and a "thank you."

Lovely car! Mine has nearly the same spec, but DCT

I think I will go for the 641M as winter wheels as well. Looks great!

Could you give some info about the outcome your coding "Angel Eyes on 50%"? Big difference?

Cheers!

Congratulations then! Truly great car, you will love it!

641M (Michelin PA4) are not too much fun to drive compared to the summer wheels (788M, Michelin PSS), but still amazing overall for a winter set.

The 50% angel eyes give it a more agressive look compared to stock but its not too bright as well. When i got my car the default was 12% and after the first round of updates at the dealer it was even down to 8%.

50% works really nice

@OP, how do you like the MP Coilovers? I am debating whether I should pull the trigger or not on a set as I am supper annoyed by the bounciness of the stock suspension on bad interstate roads here in America...I am hoping the ability to adjust rebound and compression on the MPC will lead to a much better ride under bad road conditions. Thanks!

The m performance coilovers are better than the stock suspension in every regard. You can corner the car how its intended to be done and yet still have a more compliant ride on most type of roads. They are by far the best mod I've done and I can really highly recommend them.

Very nice and clean build. I like the Performance steering wheel pretty much, interior Carbon accents. Also your individual code settings, impressive.
The stance is perfect I think. It always depends for what it's ment to be. For myself, this "babe" is built to ride it, not only to show it.

Manual transmission FTW

BSM looks SO MUCH better in real life. The last one I saw was when the sun went down already, it was not fully dark yet. It looked exceptionally good! I'd definitly go for BSM with an M2 too.


How about adding the M Performance side skirts? I think they would fit nicely too.

Hi - Please tell me about the 10mm spacers that you applied.
I am also considering but am not sure to go for 5 or 10 mm.
No issue with 10?
Thank you !
