BMW M Performance parts + carbon fiber roof (wrap) + more...

The full series of exterior parts has gone on the car. I will make some better photos when it is clean but it looks like this now. The wrap was done by the guys at Elite Wrap in Cannes: https://www.facebook.com/EliteWrap/

Parts added:
  • BMW M Performance carbon fiber mirror caps
  • BMW M Performance carbon fiber rear spoiler
  • BMW M Performance gloss black front grills
  • IND full gloss side gills
  • Carbon fiber roof wrap
  • Rear taillight and rear reflector tints

To be done:
  • Akrapovic carbon fiber rear diffuser
  • Akrapovic exhaust system
  • BMW LED Door Projectors

Any questions on what has been fitted on the exterior, just let me know and I will try to get back to you as soon as I can.

They were wrapped with a special vinyl. Looks really good now, and the lines of the lights really jump out now.

To make it look exactly like the BMW M3/M4 set up. There the antenna is also gloss black Also wrapping the antenna in the same carbon is extremely hard since the carbon is really thick and impossible to bend.

The type of film is unknown to me. Please feel free to ask the guys from Elite Wrap.

Congrats, roof carbon wrap looks excellent, wonder why not rewrap the antenna in carbon. But what brand is the carbon wrap from?

Elitewrap does not want to say what brand it is to me. It is there special wrap that they discovered somewhere in Asia and brought it to Europe. If you want to know or discuss it, I would consider reaching out to them on www.elitewrap.fr.

The set up is now the same as the M4 - carbon roof and black antenna cover - and the wrap is so thick that you cannot get it around small round objects. Fitting it is a challenge since it does not want to bend and you cannot heat it up a lot.

I have had a quote for this: 'We can do the roof rails and roof for £220. The fin will be inclusive of the price'

Tempted...very tempted, just worried if this will look good enough once installed

Super! Similar, a few stone chips in the top layer, but that is normal.
