[F80] Official BLACK SAPPHIRE F80 M3 Sedan Thread

Recently removed my wrap and brought her back to the black.

Here are some better pics of my 15. After throwing about $20k at it in the past year since buying, it’s about where I want it to be. The huge piece of the puzzle still remaining are the brakes because the blue ones have to go. Still deciding what to do there but will hopefully make a decision soon. Brembo had a pretty nasty price increase lately on their GT kits and it's stupid expensive now ($9.5k to my door wtf). I'd pull the trigger on the M2 CS kit, but I've always thought the front CCB calipers are an ugly shape and boy are they heavy. Unless I can find something nicely used soon, I'll probably just go that route and paint the calipers a custom Papaya Orange with a black Brembo stamp. Then outside that, *maybe* a CS hood and that’s it. Love this car, what an amazing machine. Now gets all the attention and compliments my YMB F82 did.

Thank you so much!

It both feels complete and needs something else.

If you really hate money then get some euro ikons - they're a nice update to an otherwise never quite complete F80

Griots 3 in 1 is the truth.

Fresh ceramic coating has it at max gloss. Bonus if you can figure out what's in the garage!

Atlantis autoflex. It started to look a little less glossy after a couple years so I wanted to see my paint again. Edit: sorry for dirtying up this thread with a non-BSM pic

F80RN · 10-03-2022, 11:28 PM

Kind of want a big wing

WordOnRoad · 10-18-2022, 08:46 AM
