Got the roof wrapped in gloss black today. Couldn't do the roof rails unfortunately so I'm going to have to get those sprayed next week. She's coming together nicely

Gorgeous 4 series, where did you get those paint color reflectors?

Got them from IND but I'm not happy with them. Even though they're the same stock reflectors, this set is slightly bent and shows a slight gap that's driving my crazy. Already talked to IND and they refused to replace them and said it must be user error. I had the shop today try fixing them for me and they confirmed there's something up with them causing that slight gap so I'm either going to have them wrap my stock reflectors in white or paint them since those should fit 100%

Not sure if you can tell from this pic because it's not the best angle but you can somewhat see the gap when you're up close

I can see what you are referring to, sorry! Hope it works out.

Dirty Trooper.... Desperate for a wash! Weather not great this weekend. 2 x to NY in the last week! Now I know what black wheels look like on the car!

I have an F10 M5 with the painted reflectors from IND. I learned one thing when doing the install, if you don't get every single bit of the old adhesive from the original factory reflectors off the inside of the bumper, you will get that gap you are showing. Same thing happened to me and I had to redo them to get them flush. I ended up using my fingernail on index finger with WD40 and rubbing alcohol to peel off the excess adhesive I had missed the first time.

Nice. I have the MSport diffuser and black tips

I'm concerned about PA dmv rules on the reflectors so just leaving them be.

Look forward to photos!

I'll throw some pics up as soon as I can everything installed!

So last Sunday I spent 3+ hours cleaning my car in glorious sunshine. Last night she's covered in snow 😞

MSCD · 03-02-2018, 05:51 AM

A little more alpine white.... the ice planet Hoth, courtesy of Siberia! My niece and nephews enjoyed the snow!

We got some too!

MSCD · 03-03-2018, 02:20 PM
