It actually has a lot of that effect naturally, and is probably not as processed as you might think. SMB is almost chrome like.

Here is a shot of an M6 in SMB, on my iPhone. No processing whatsoever.

Yeah not much post processing was done.

sniez · 08-16-2015, 07:14 PM

i haven't been wildly in love with the blue colors until this one. man, looks incredible. well done.

Luminor513 · 08-16-2015, 07:24 PM

I'm not the biggest fan of all the blue colors available on BMW's, my personal preference is black, BUT....your SMB F80 looks amazing! Love THIS color blue on the F80, really complements the car. Great job on the whole package.

omegaSMP300 · 08-16-2015, 07:37 PM

Very nice!

BoosTonian · 08-16-2015, 07:39 PM

This is my favorite color for the f80, congrats on such a beautiful car! Look forward to following your build!

AlexN · 08-16-2015, 08:18 PM

OP - beautiful car. My favorite color BMW offers at the moment

For those looking for untouched photos of SMB, here are a few pics taken yesterday at the dealer.
One car was under the showroom lights, the other outside.
Straight out of the Galaxy S5 and even compressed through whatsapp

That really looks very different to any SMB that I've seen in person.
