    Please take pretty pictures for me haha.

    If anyone here was never seen a matte car before (I know I hadnt), it is the coolest thing. The paint seriously has the fit and finish of a MacBook!

        I saw the M5 at the motorshow two years ago in that colour and was absolutely blown away. Looks incredible.

          My only worry is the damn maintenance!

          I have set up to have the car wrapped head to toe in stealth clear wrap designed for matte paintjobs however.

          Will also be doing upgraded DCT software, a tune to lift the rev limit to 9400, a Meissercraft GT full catless exhaust, AFE high flow filter (not touching the airbox or throttle body setup). Im being careful to only do mods that are reversible.

            Good call on the wrap.

            I can't wait to see/hear this thing!

              If it were you I'd look into the akropovic exhaust for that car... By far the best sounding/lightest exhaust available, and I'm a dealer

                  Well, feel free to do your own research, but the Akrapovic is the best out there. I am also a Meisterschaft dealer.

                          You should shop around for prices,as I bet I can beat ecu program, because we buy direct and probly in bigger quantities.

                                I saw a matte silver m3 parked on 17 ave at about 17st sw today. Maybe it's a wrap but it looks good.
