It's the 3D full carbon lip from RW Carbon. Love it.

20% all around. Really makes it pop. And thanks for the kind words.

Probably the tint level I’m going with when the car comes in. Anything on the windshield?

I never do the windshield on any of our cars. Here In Michigan it's only hot maybe 3 or 4 months out of the year and the m3 isnt my daily.

I do 20% on pretty much everything except our new X5 I did 15% on the fronts as the factory tint is like 17 or 18% I believe on the rears. It matched up great and can't tell any difference.

They’re really not that bad. Oddly enough the worst road I’ve driven recently was park avenue the other day. I tend to take mine for a quick rip up the palisades parkway or into west Chester; a great 20 min drive each way, few times a week.

There’s another green m3 I see sometimes parked near my garage, never met the owner though.

Just picked up the car at the end of April. So far got Tint, PPF, Ceramic, Front and Rear Reflectors done. This weekend I'll be doing the Center Console Badge, Spacers and Mud Flaps. First Cars and Coffee on Sunday, let's Go!

love seeing more Silverstone on IOMG!

Diesel power · 05-15-2024, 10:30 AM

Yeah I was going back and forth between Silverstone and Tartufo for a while. Ended up doing Full Silverstone and couldn't be happier. Subtler than Kaylami but sportier than Tartufo, which kind of fits my vision for the car in general.

Looks great. Good choice

Took a fun, twisty drive through a nearby German forest today once it stopped raining! This car is so awesome!

On my way back, Google Maps took me off roading for a second, so I got to test out xDrive in the mud, and now she needs a bath...again. lol
