2020 M340ix Portimao Blue

Thanks for all the photos and advice on how to approach my upgrades! Main inspiration: https://mobile.twitter.com/cars_pixe...26954010779648

The front bumper black trim parts are on their way, which will be followed by some window tint.

Shadow line grill and front orange reflector delete from IND:

Very nice - any plans on the side mirrors or front vents?

I see you're in CT, cheers! Do you have a tint place yet?

Looks great! Change up the mirrors and fog light intake things and it will look even better (IMO).

Front vents are on the way. I can’t seem to find black mirror caps. Only ones I found are the carbon fiber set. I was thinking about doing vinyl wrap on the mirrors but question how long they’ll last because of the movement with unlocking/locking the car.

Apex Auto Detailing will be doing my tinting!

Thanks! Definitely thinking about the wheels. I’ve been checking out your car but haven’t figured out if you have a spoiler. I’m on the fence about throwing on one of the CS type.

BMW doesn't sell the pre-painted black mirror caps. They have to order unpainted ones and they will paint them the same color code as the extended shadowline package. That's what I had done.

That looks great! I’m definitely headed in that direction.

I just placed an eBay order for these. Hopefully will have updated pics in a couple weeks.

I ended up upgrading the front lip to the M-performance package. I'm looking to sell the one above. Feel free to message me if interested.
