Like I said I'm still deciding on that. But that's what's nice about the wrap. Very easy removal!

Nice car man, do what makes you happy. Personally I like a clean black car, but the accents aren't ricey or anything drastic. I'm sure in person it pops a lot better.

Wow ... it's even better. Really an art-car. Will definitely take a look at everything you posted for performance. Why didn't you go for 4 tips instead of 2? You have a lot of power to release.

Car looks good with 2. No need for the 4 IMO. Im a big fan of the exhaust thats on there now. To each their own.

I had it done somewhere so Im not 100% sure but it shouldn't be that bad to reach back there. Removing the bumper would probably be easiest.

Did they use special wrap? Or is like the normal kind just fine? I'm asking because I'm scared that the wrap will just loosen/get off the bars because of the hot temperatures of the engine
But man your car looks awesome👍👍 I'm looking to buy a 2series soon and will be doing something similar to your car!!!

The bars and brake calipers are reflective wraps which have high heat resistance. Looks pretty cool. The rest is regular.

The clutch masters probably could hold power much better but I'd imagine the 550 clutch might be easier to daily drive with. Also I think the kit is much cheaper.
Yeah I've heard the kit OEM for ours is crazy expensive. The clutchmasters one with aluminum flywheel and self adjusting clutch was like 1600.

And this one is rated for 590 HP. Optimistic but rather be safe and get something grippy. That being said I'm a rather aggressive driver so I'm excited and wanted more racy than easy :-p
dude, that's awesome that you went this route. I'm totally thinking of doing this with more power. Since you eliminated the dual mass flywheel, how is the driveability and are you having noise issues? Sweet build man, car looks awesome!

Very noisy on idle. Lots of chatter. Driveability from a standstill took a hit but that's more from the almost race level clutch than the flywheel IMO.
