Great detail, thanks again!

Great job on the install

Wet application is of course the correct way to do it as we include the proper squeegee tool to do this. Glad to see it on an individual color car too!

Love these stripes!

Any chance you have a write up on the proper procedure for a 'wet' install? I have never done anything like this.

I'd be interested too.

Also, I'm confused about the "curve"... Is this long ways, or just the ends, where they meet the glass, on both ends?

I can't really make out the "curve" from the photos.. Maybe that's not just possible to photo, or more likely, I'm just an idiot.

I'm down for one, if I think I can do it correctly.

First Off, GREAT JOB on recreating the look! I'm planning to order a set soon.
Second, I noticed that some have laid down the stripe with the light blue band closest to the driver's side, and some the opposite. It appears that when looking at the car from the FRONT that it would blend more nicely if the RED were closest to the driver's side, to match the front grill M (and perhaps those that have also colored their grill slats)?

OK, this is definitely the OCD part of me talking, but welcome other's thoughts on this...

Again, GREAT JOB on replicating this look!

I did mine locally ... the M Stripes were printed on clear film

Some pics.

I always wondered the exact same thing. I installed mine a couple months ago to be congruent with the stripes on the grill badge.

Have you tried to access the site?

No luck for me.

PM has gone unanswered also.

Seems sketchy.

I think IND is selling them.

Get your local sticker shop to do it.

Print on clear sticker (similar to xpel material)

Mine costs US$50 ... 15 cm wide and inclusive of installation

yellowssm · 12-07-2015, 09:52 PM

My vinyl guy said easy just gotta figure out what the vinyl is. Anyone know exactly what kind of vinyl or where to find rolls of it?

Alvinized52 · 12-07-2015, 10:37 PM

Those of you that have had these for a while... Have the printed colors show any kind of fading? My experience with printed stuff is that color inks fades under the sun. Im in SoCal so this is a huge concern of mine.

We worked with Future Classic to produce our own examples—these are as close to OE sizing and translucence and are compatible with all F8X cars (M2, M3, M4) as well as F90 M5

An applicator kit with a felt lined applicator squeegee and fluid is also available to make it a little easier for the DIY guys.

These are in stock and ready to go!
