After owning my conservative black M4 for about 2.5 years, it is time to go a bit...liberal!

And as I've never owned an M3 before, I thought the F80 would be the perfect start!

As it's not my daily, I could get away with this insane colour, individual fire orange!

I'll let the pics do all the talking!

I've done a couple of mods already and vorsteiner diffuser is on order.

The 2018 LCI2 is better than my pre LCI non comp M4 in all aspects! This car drives, handles and sounds better. Feels like a completely different car!

It also has the individual interior with fire orange stitching and accents.

Major congrats.. I am sure i wont miss it on the streets !

MPoweRo · 07-07-2018, 06:58 AM

Ow, my retinas!

Good on you and congratulations! My favourite photo, though, is the one of you beaming in the driver's seat.

Enjoy and be merry.

Thanks guys!

The tints made a huge difference! Glad I didn't listen to those who advised against it!

Looks brilliant!

What percentage tint is that? It looks very dark

I like the lip with body colour stripe, best way to do it

Went with 20%. 35% was too light and 15% was too dark. I liked the look of 15% but I thought it might be difficult to see at night.

You might need to remind them on the definition - "one of a kind" https://www.bmwblog.com/2018/07/22/o...ire-orange-ii/

Yeah and that car doesn't even have the individual fire orange accents that my car has on the doors, dash, and steering wheel trim!

JWM · 07-26-2018, 07:44 AM

Looks awesome. I've always gone with conservative colours in the past but I love the M3 in interesting colours like this, seems the shape really suits them well. The matching interior elements is the icing on the cake.

drgmt · 07-26-2018, 04:13 PM

Great car.

I would paint chrome gear lever and the surround orange - that would be my first mod.

Would look great and would cost around $100 to do properly
