Shadowline Plus+

OK so Shadowline Plus+ doesn't exist but if it did this would be my take on it. M Performance kit in gloss black (NO carbon fibre) along with the addition of gloss black badging (photos to follow shortly).

Today was collection day, I've attached a few photos from this morning, still has some factory stickers and grime but you get the idea. A short wait now while my car has a thorough clean, ceramic coating and gloss black badging to enhance the "Shadowline" look further.

More pics to follow when it's finally completed on Thursday..... if you want to see 'em that is!!

Looks good mate! Bet you can't wait to pick it up, I've got to wait until the end of September for mine.

But shadow line plus does exist, see the screenshot of part of my build spec sheet

That front splitter looks really quite good.

Any ideas of the part number?

Can’t exist to get mine in a month.

Also, I am biased but seeing mineral grey like that makes spending the extra on Dravit a bit pointless.

Same, I originally specced dravit but changed my mind to mineral after seeing them both in the flesh. I think in the uk you don't get the benefit of dravit due it hardly ever being sunny haha

It did cross my mind but decided to spend the cash on laser headlights instead!

I've got Dravit, as that is what the used one came with, but think Mineral is a nicer colour to my unsophisticated eye.

Lovely--elegant and mean-looking at the same time. Congrats! I had MG on my previous G20 and I think it looked splendid. The shadowline elements really bring out the best of its refinement too. It'll pop after a ceramic coat!

The original OEM spolier is removed to make way for the M Performance one.

I don't have the instructions on how to install it but have included pics from the reverse side which show the fixing points along with the part number for the M Performace spolier.
