It definitely is glossy, like any other M-Sport diffuser out there!

You know I've been bouncing back and forth about the rear diffusor look. My first impression was that it was just a shiny grey slab that was under engineered and had no forethought.
However, yesterday, I was looking at the back of my F30 from a distance, and now I see the similarity. Although still under engineered, I see the thinking in it. The bump/curve the diffusor continues a line from the bumper curve above the rear reflectors, making an "m" wave pattern. This is actually the same as the F30 ( except on the F30, the bottom of the wave is still on the bumper and not on the diffusor ). It might be hard to see in the F30 since the shape is more gradual, but on salt/winter dirt stained car, I can definitely see it. So the diffusor on the F22 is growing on me... its actually a bit clever.

after our discussion on the Facebook Group I had a closer look to that diffuser, it has the same colour like the bars in the front (where the foglights supposed to be at non m235´s) its grey |

As for the silver/metallic side mirrors, I get that too. It reflects some design elements from the grill and the headlights, and is another horizontal element meant to make the car look wider... but it doesn't work at all for me. And its annoying that if I buy this car, I would have to spend $$$ correct this mistake by BMW.

Those dreaded air blades suck, so be happy the US didn't get 'em (if that's the case), cause I think we're stuck w them in Canada, meaning time for black masking tape paint...
Also the car looks good in red but way better in Mineral White. |

I actually like the air blades, but its not a biggie for me either way. I'm sure there's lots of solutions to that, as I've seen people paint the "whiskers" on the F30's.

The rear bumper on the white car on the road looks different from the one on the red car at Welt, especially on both sides where it curves inward on the white car.

Nice.
I hope to "test" that out myself at some point.
