M Performance Rocker Panel Decals

Did anyone purchase these with their order? I'm not 100% sure I will like them but included them in my build anyway. I'd rather have them installed perfectly by the experts at the port and remove later if I don't like them than skip em and risk a bad install later if I change my mind.

Did anyone else have these decals installed on their M3/M4? Were they installed at the port or by the dealer, at a shop, or did you DIY?

I'm curious as to how they look on this platform because I can't find clear photographs. All I come across are photos of F30/F32s with a similar decal but these obviously have a different rocker panel setup.

If anyone does have them or is aware of a good photo showing them installed on an F8X, please post it here!

Thank you, sir! I don't know if I like the placement. I wonder if it was port installed. I pick my m4 up Monday and don't want any nasty surprises lol.

I allllllmost got it.....but since I have the side sills I wanted the contrast to exist on my lighter color. I don't like the way it looks on that one pictured above. I'm glad I didn't do it. I did see it on a Sakhir orange M4 and it looked really good though.

Found one last night that looks exactly how I'd prefer. I guess I'll find out tomorrow when I pick her up!

I'm considering adding these to my car.

So would also love to see additional pictures, but questions:
How do you feel about them now that you've lived with them a bit?

Is the decal holding up?

Is there a black stripe decal down the side above the blade in addition to the ///M Performance decal or is this just a shadow?

Did the addition of the blade create any hard to clean issues?

I still love them. Holding up perfectly. No wear whatsoever. There isn't anything along the blade, though. Likely just the effect of lighting. I can get you some more pictures this evening after work.

That would be great, thanks for answering my questions. Have another, did you have yours painted gloss black or leave them the matte/satin finish?

Left mine satin. Went for a matte black theme with the side markers and grille as well.

Got to see these in person this weekend on an individual Ruby Red M4, I think they finish the side of the car off nicely.
