alpine white m235i with a few changes

Hello everyone I'm new to this site. Love this forum. I've had my m235i for a little over a year now and just wanted to post of some pics of the car after changing a few things. I took off all the emblems and painted them black. As you can see, the i on the trunk badge fell off but I kind of like how it looks so I haven't changed it. It didn't bother enough to pay the $50 for a new badge. I got a gloss black spoiler from eBay for about $120. I used to not like how spoilers looked but once I saw it in person I loved it.

This weekend I was bored and I had been dying to see how black rims would look on the car so I plastidipped them. I ended up peeling it off after a few days because I wasn't too happy with the result. It looks a lot better in these pics than it did in person. Having them black made me really realize how much I love the grey on the 235i wheels.

Grill is plastidipped too with glosifier.

I also plastidipped the rear reflectors. Wow! I love this mod. It took maybe 10 minutes and really changed the look of the rear of the car in my opinion. If you have any questions feel free to ask

Have any pics of the plastidipping process of the rear reflectors? Did you tape off and paint them while on the car? Do they come out? Beautiful car. The Apline White and the Estoril Blue are two colors that make me second guess getting Sapphire Black

they pop right out so no taping. i gave them 3-4 coats each and then waited like 30 minutes before putting them back on the car. Sapphire black is a beautiful color! the 2 looks so sleek in that color

Absolutely beautiful. I live in Miami as well and I was planning on doing something similar with my (hopefully ) future M235i.
