Very nice. Mine is the same but with all black wheels and the little insert things in the corners of the lower fascia intakes are still the matte chrome finish. Not sure if I want to dip them or not...

I've got a few more images of the rear of the car below but no close ups on the diffuser specifically. Please note that there are also 2 options on the diffuser. You can opt for a carbon fiber and larger diffuser that is again, very expensive, or you can get the smaller glossy black one as shown here. If you go for the carbon fiber wing, then go for the carbon fiber diffuser I think.

Hope this helps you on your purchase and good luck.
Hi there. The listing says it's a matte finish. Can you confirm? Thanks.

Black Mirror Caps 3BE?

Anyone have or getting Black Mirror Caps (3BE) with Black Sapphire?

The dealer was suggesting I get them to match the High-gloss Kidney Grille and extended contents (7M9), so just curious what others are doing.

I didn't realise I hadn't posted these here but, like most, it hasn't been out on the road much lately.

Yeah. My first F30 was black on coral red. Not sure why they did not bring this option to market in the US again

My new M340i, BSM on 791M's.

I traded in a 2011 E92 335i. I had that care forever and loved it, but this one has already made me forget it...

Thanks, yes Ive seen it and its awsome. Was hoping for a 320/330 m-sport instead though, since it will be more similar to the one Ive ordered(330e touring m-sport). its not fair to compare to the M340 right?
And also since 330e touring still isnt in production..guess real soon though.

Dirt is always going to show against black. My biggest gripe with BSM is water spotting it is a major PITA .I have a Audi A3 from a few years back also in black & I assume it's because it's a 'flat' black that it does not suffer water spotting at all.

On the up side is when it's polished up & if you have the Shadow Line pack it looks mean as hell!

Like mentioned above, it does attract dirt and dust. I am very impressed with the paint job in this vehicle though. I do have black sapphire metallic, and can tell you that it’s much more durable than the paint on my last BMW. I had a brand new X5 in dark grey, and that thing would chip, nick, and scratch if a leaf blew over it. Overall, I am happy with the g20 in black. I do a 2 bucket wash once a week or sooner if dirty. It looks sharp when it is washed, but you do need to keep up with it. Obviously, I would avoid car washes (dealer too!), be it automatic. I have been happy using the meguiars line of products...I use the gold class wash every 2 weeks and the wash and wax (yellow formula) in between. The meguiars ultimate paste wax is great. It’s the first one that is easy on and off. I spent too much on the chemical guys stuff, so it is nice saving some money using meguiars.

Probably more info than you needed, but hope it helps...bottom line...get black sapphire metallic!
