Thanks guys, this one is my daily/weekender/family car so it will retain all the current M Performance goodies and I'll be adding 20" BBS FI-R wheels and KW V3 suspension.

In all honesty that sounds good to me, clean and simple. That's how my SS2 is now, M-performance cf goodies on Kw v3s but no Fi-Rs lol. Just sticking to my vff103s for now, but maybe going back to stock 18s soon.

Latest pics with MP side skirts. I had my local shop modify the M4 skirts, the fitment was spot on, but they needed to add a few self tapping screws to hold firmly into place.

Question - I purchased the MP lip (matte black) and carbon splitters to round things out, but was thinking of painting the splitters Silverstone to keep the overall flow of the bumper + fins intact. The only draw backs I see is the color matching may be slightly off with the paint job, and the splitters don't fit flush onto the bumper leaving a tiny gap which both may throw things off, OCD wise. I haven't seen too many go this route, and wanted to get thoughts, feedback.

Thanks!

I'm so thinking of doing this to my SS M3 (skirts) do you have any more higher resolution pictures? Looks awesome. Also I like your idea of painting the splitters. I find carbon fiber splitters on SS doesn't look as good as the body color.

Silverstone love on Super Bowl Sunday

I haven't had a BMW in about 4 years after my 135i went back. It sure is nice to be back. I love the 18" 513 M wheels on this car and the extra sidewall is nice on our potholed roads here in Los Angeles.

Jockey · 02-24-2017, 10:56 AM

Nice! Another SS on SS
