It's not a Rarri but it's Rosso Corsa (M5)

backslashv · 07-14-2022, 03:03 PM

Oh that's pretty. I will be taking delivery of my M3 soon and I asked the dealer to keep the protective sheets on. I'm planning on removing them there right at the dealership to check for any damages and was wondering if I can just peel them off or there is a special way to do it.

No special way you just pull.

You are very right. I noticed it the second I created the thread. Too bad threat titles can’t be edited, I tried lol.

Thank you!

MPerformance suspension next week, will take before and after pics. I’ll try and give a good write up of the difference in handling.

Dinan front monoball kit the week after.

Detail, PPF and ceramic coating.

I've got a long list of OEM+ upgrades for it. But after a mishap with...ordering the wrong wheels. I took it in stride and decided to buy new 789Ms and powdercoat them in gloss black. Dealer is putting them on for me ahead of delivery.

More pictures to come tomorrow and I'll document some of the upgrades as they are completed!

List of upgrades:
1. Carbon parts: Mperformance front lip, Mperformance side skirts, CS trunk spoiler.
2. Gloss Black Vinyl for roof: Couldn't give up the sunroof, my son and wife love them. This is the middle ground
3. Wheel spacers, along with Gloss Black 789Ms
4. IND painted reflectors, logo projectors, etc.
5. Mperformance suspension for lowering just a tad bit, mainly for the front.
6. 35% ceramic window tint
7. Detail, PPF, ceramic coating

Very nice! Are all those M performance parts available through your dealer? And, are they installed by your dealer? I really like the direction you took with the upgrades, I would like to do much of the same. So, just want to make sure I understand the process. (I have a July 30 production date, so we have time to take care of this, I hope!)

Merlin_83 · 07-15-2022, 09:54 AM

Wow ! Beautiful color for sure - and such a stunner - tasteful mods too.

I love your car - so nice!

Any driving videos you can post would be so great too

Cheers,
Merlin

I wanted to order the Mperformance parts with my original build. My dealer said there were issues and BMW wasn't allowing VPC installed parts at port at that time. I ordered all of the parts from IND Distribution and they are all OEM parts. I had a BMW certified repair shop install them. Took 4 hours to install the front lip, side skirts and trunk spoiler. I really want the car to be OEM+ and not "aftermarket looking". I'm having my BMW dealer sell and install the Mperformance suspension for me, they're likely charging me $1k too much for the labor but it's the price I have to pay to feel comfort in retaining full OEM warranty. At least that's how I justify it

Gorgeous. Well done.

bholler · 07-15-2022, 12:56 PM

From one Ferrari Red to another, stunning!

mpower3330 this is an incredible color, and an incredible build. WOW

Congrats on the purchase, BEAUTIFUL mods and touches thus far. Those 50 yr anniversary emblems match perfectly with the Rosso Corsa. I've long said it - my G90 will be red.

ENJOY IT BROTHER! KEEP THE PHOTOS COMING!

Thank you! Learned from the best examples

Ready for the weekend and Mperformance suspension install this week.

mpower3330 · 07-20-2022, 10:31 AM

Dropped the car off this morning for the M Performance suspension install at my BMW dealer. Below is the list of all parts used and the pre-install heights. I should be getting it back by Friday and will share post-install pictures as well as driving impact review.

Vehicle height: Measured as floor to the center of each fender wheel well. Car currently has 700 miles on it, don't know if there would have been more settling over time but it sat too high for my liking and there is too much roll/slop. I've asked the dealer to lower it by 3/8 inch around.

Front height: 28 inch
Rear height: 28 and 1/4.

Parts:
