Painted MPerformance parts

Thinking about painted MPerformance front splitter, rear diffuser and side skirts. Big cost from BMW so does anyone have pictures of their M4/M3 with the same work done?

This is mine but it is in BSM, so you may not see that they are painted clearly.

Beautiful, did you get the side skirt aero blades painted too? My M4 is SB but has so much carbon I thought the Matt on the front lip looked good but yours has made me change my mind. Any issues with stone chips etc?

Hi,
The side skirts are painted, no issues so far with chipping. This picture may show it a little better.

Now got a price of £2400 for painted front spoiler, front bumper cf intake trim kit, painted side sill extensions, and gloss kidney grills and wing vent fillets. So they wanted £1450 for the diffuser and cf rear spoiler

One of the guys on FB sent me his quote from BMW Edinburgh for complete MPerformace kit at £3200 compared to Lloyd Newcastle's £3850. Kicked up a fuss, they have lots of reasons why the price was different (all BMW's fault, not theirs) and then matched it. Hopefully will be done in time for the NE Karting session in a couple of weeks

Bmw seem to do this a lot. I had the same issue when I was looking into getting the MPerformance Exhaust. coopers in Sunderland said the best price they could do was £3400 and that was final. I told them it didnt matter as I had a better quote of just over £3200. The next day they go in touch and said they pushed some number around blah blah blah and could do it for £3200. just try to squeeze the most out of unsuspecting customers

I have posted my F82 with updated pics , And most of the the Mods are CF,
I got my side skirts painted MG as with my car color, Cost £185.00 and (2) packets of wine gums,

Do not go to BMW for paint works as they will just empty your pockets,

Find out the color code of your car and find a car body shop that has a good rep and ask them to spray paint your needed parts ,

You will save a fortune

BMW love taking your hard earned cash

But if you shop about you will get allot better prices for the same work that BMW dealer would undertake, all you need is your car paint code

It's just the same as it's always been.

STAY AWAY FROM MAIN DEALER UNLESS THERES NO OTHER CHOICE.

I paid £180 to have my front splitter painted and fitted. Mates rates!
