Check out my latest Launch Control video!

ryem3 · 11-18-2019, 08:42 PM

Uh, well, trying to do launch control! You'll see that the M2 is no Porsche! The M2 C has plenty of power on stock tires as you'll see.

I'm pretty much finished with mods, so I showcase all the mods I've done to the car. Hope you enjoy.

Looks great, especially with the red calipers

How's the caliper paint holding up, any fading or chips?

Is that gloss carbon interior trim that you have there? I haven't seen that before.

That watch is 3x the cost of the M2?

DCT in manual? M235i needs to be in Sportmode.

Nice wet carbon fiber interior trim

Did you coat the original dry carbon?

MystroX5 · 11-21-2019, 10:26 AM

Great video. I am a WIS as well so the watch shot was appreciated.

Wow, tourbillon.

It has held up very well. No tracking though, so I wouldn't comment on discoloring from heat.

No, I didn't coat the original stuff. Got gloss carbon coated OEM trim from Dinmann on the west coast. I still have the original trim and will swap out and sell the set when I sell the car. The steering wheel trim is OEM M4 trim. I really didn't like the open pore stuff, I think the gloss trim sets off the interior much better.

Very inspirational

I'm guessing that heat generated from hard-core tracking is the Achilles Heel of any caliper paint mutation, a stock coating or otherwise.

A street-driven car should be able to withstand the basis elements and remain unblemished.
