I'm using 2 layers of Blackfire Wet Diamond paint sealant with 8hr flashing in between and a coat of Blackfire Midnight Sun carnauba wax. Great quality and ease of application. |

If the side blades and vinyl sticker are ordered and installed from dealer, the m performance stickers come separately. On the M Performance Edition, its embedded with some satin protectant sheet on top. |

I love it Adrian!
Hey. How did you get the weather to display on your right screen panel. Actually, how did you get the weather to display at all? I know it can do it, but I have yet to figure out how. Got the real time traffic mastered though already. |

When you push right on the iDrive, you can select what you see in the splitscreen eg. Nav, or media info. The clock and/or weather is under the bmw widgets.

Btw, although my sales rep states that 18" winter wheels will fit over our 370mm rotors and calipers, I decided to test fit different wheels before I order something. After testing two different 18" oem wheels, I've found that the clearance is less than the thickness of a balance weight between the inside rim and the caliper...... not the best idea in my opinion.

I really like the way the front splitter is painted, i.e. the bottom part left unpainted. It accentuates the air intake nicely.
For winter wheels, I just got a set of 18" wheels and I agree the clearance is very tight. Luckily my wheels have no issue clearing my M-Sport brakes (which should be the same size as the M Performace brakes). My wheels are aftermarket, not OEM btw. |

I had a look. It is not really a lot, but it seems to be enough. What is an acceptable amount? It freeeeezing outside. I can measure it later. It's really tough to get something in there to measure it. I was thinking to maybe use a deck of playing cards.
