Thanks bro, it’s the OEM M Performance engine cover. Overpriced IMO lol but yea, certainly looks very nice

Indy_M · 05-15-2023, 01:47 PM

Added Remus axle-back
Completed rocker panel PPF + correction + gtechniq ceramic protection

Wanted_M · 05-18-2023, 09:31 PM

Added Speed Engineering ram air intake kit, simple install, nice fitment.

misterly1 · 05-19-2023, 11:00 PM

Picked up new rear tires to replaced the mismatching ones from the previous owner

Jbrown7403 · 05-21-2023, 01:18 PM

Got up early and used Mother’s Back to Black on the upper and lower grille. Foam brush sure made it much easier on the tedious lower grille. Satisfying and sooooo much better!
.
Edit…Just did a 2nd coat in the afternoon and it looks even better!

TTM0TION · 05-21-2023, 03:37 PM

That looks great!

Wanted_M · 05-21-2023, 04:14 PM

Installed M Performance pedals, you'd think this crap would be standard on M's...

Nice! Yea definitely should be standard but, that's the world we live in...

Also didn't know the throttle pedal was floor mounted! I need an M3 in my life

Interesting - this is always a pain in the ass to do. I've actually gone through the hassle of ceramic coating the one on my spyder. Took hours...

Can you show what applicator brush you used?

I'm looking into air intake ducts and saw the going prices on Speed Engineer ones

Where'd you get the air inlets from? Were they able to be ordered stateside?

No, had to order directly from them. Very well made.

njavier03 · 06-12-2023, 08:48 PM

3 months later, and I finally installed it

darrvao777 · 06-12-2023, 10:56 PM

bought the car used, 2015 f82 with about 17000 miles on it purchased in june 2022, i’ve put about 20000 miles on it in the last year

first service in october needed to change a tire and oil change

2nd service is proving to be a real gut punch, yikes. starting to understand why dailying an M car is for wealthy folks not folks like me, need to reassess my daily driver situation …

njavier03 · 06-13-2023, 07:30 AM

$1600 is insane

HotRodM4 · 06-13-2023, 11:46 AM

Finally tuned my car. Shameless YouTube plug below 😬 skip to 07:10 for a 0-60 launch and loud noises

NickyC · 06-15-2023, 10:02 AM

New ICONs! BMW really helped me out, had a failing drivers side DRL and they replaced BOTH headlights under warranty to ensure the colors matched. Both new headlights have a mid 2022 creation date on them. Very pleased, great work by BMW!

NickyC · 06-17-2023, 01:57 PM

Subtle little touch to the car today. Artists at iND were able to create a matte black badge for me with a mint green outer to match the brake calipers. They did a super nice job with the badge, and I think I got it on fairly well but to me the ///M part might need to be adjusted just a hair. Getting 4 characters to line up perfectly is a PITA especially when the damned things STICK to the paint the second you put them on hah. Give it a subtle little look without bleeding the color onto the characters themselves, I like it. Thanks iND!

NickyC · 06-17-2023, 02:45 PM

Adjusted a bit, good enough for me now.

Garage627 · 06-17-2023, 06:58 PM

Cleaned it up after driving the Hot Rod Power Tour for two stops last Sunday-Tuesday. Air conditioning on my GT350 went out the week before so M4 got the call. Cool road trip.
