Hi guys, I'm new to this forum. Just took delivery of an M4 CP in YMB.

This is my first M car, so will sure be looking for some advice at some point.

First impressions of the car are very good. A lot more refined than my previous Jap cars, and of course the build quality is much higher.

Will get some pictures posted up shortly, just wanted to say hello.

Cheers

Welcome to the forum!!

And for God's sake, get those photos up as soon as possible. That's my favourite spec at the moment!!

M5essex · 06-09-2016, 09:30 AM

Welcome

can't wait to see the ymb cp!

DazC · 06-09-2016, 09:45 AM

Welcome.

gatsojon · 06-09-2016, 09:50 AM

Indeed, welcome.

There are rules as you will appreciate but the only one that concerns anyone is the rule that you must post pictures...

Ade_7 · 06-09-2016, 10:05 AM

Looks like this is my smiley today

Aki85 · 06-09-2016, 12:14 PM

Thanks for the welcome. Here's some pictures, if they upload

Aki85 · 06-09-2016, 12:22 PM

Only took on my phone, so will need to get some high res pics one day.

As you can see, i have some M Performance bits fitted. Rear diffuser, rear spoiler, front corners. Waiting for the splitter to come into my dealers, as it's on back order. Side skirts need fitting, think i might get some in carbon though.

I had the wheels done in Black prior to me collecting, as in standard colour i thought they didn't suit the car, not to everyones taste, but it's my taste that counts.

Not sure what the rules are on the forum regards selling, but i have brand new M Performance grills, and wing vents if anyone is interested in buying them.

mofomat · 06-09-2016, 01:01 PM

Looks fantastic.

dopper99 · 06-09-2016, 01:06 PM

Looks very nice indeed. Welcome.

M5essex · 06-09-2016, 01:28 PM

Nice one! Looks sweet. I need to take in the wheels more as I was toying with doing the same and still have pressure from people to do it...

JustChris · 06-09-2016, 01:33 PM

Welcome a great car!!

Small request if possible, any chance of some nice pics of the black Satans, maybe straight on and also at a small angle.

I'm still considering this in gloss or Matt finish. Can be hard to see from photos, you really happy with them, do you lose the concave look of the centre part?

Congrats again!

I think on your car, in SS, the dark 437 alloys would look fantastic. But I'm not suggesting you swap, these wheels are what say it's a CP.

I gotta keep the 666's but maybe go gun metal on them?

I second that. I don't know the wheels well enough, but maybe a two-tone approach would work eg the GTS wheels but gunmetal instead of orange.

Chompers · 06-10-2016, 09:50 AM

Welcome to the mad house, car looks great

Im thinking gloss Black inner and leave the polished outer.

That should go well with the gloss Black of the CP pack.

Enjoy your new car, looks fantastic! Fellow YMB owner

Do you really think so? I have to admit I prefer them when they're dirty...
