This looks great! Wheels look perfectly spaced. Spoiler contrasts nicely.

Sweet steering wheel! This exactly what I'm looking for, tri-color stitching, alcantara and no center stripe. M-Performance or Aftermarket?

I take it there is no heating capability?

Coded Temp values to TPMS view in iDrive.
Installed LED reverse lights and coded.

Hi Tom,

Is this the Alcantara/CF trim or the dry carbon fiber one?

Where did you get the dry carbon fiber center piece with the convertible switch cut out?

Thanks in advance! I have been looking for this!

It's aftermarket, made by Coby. Mine is not heated but from what I understand, the owner can make them heated. He essentially takes an OEM core from his inventory, wraps it in the color / stitching Alcantara of your choice, sends it to you, then you send your original wheel back to go into his inventory of cores.

Mine was only $250 total.

Full Ankrapovic exhaust from down pipe to tips, m diffuser installed. Chipping away at the little things before I put enough miles on it to attack the wheels, tires, mechanical updates this coming spring

Really interested in how you go with this. I am about to install (next few weeks, hopefully over the holidays) the MSS Sport springs on to my M240i with 15,000 miles. I did think about installing the B6 struts but decided to leave it for a bit and go with the springs only. With only 15k miles I decided that the oem struts still had plenty of life in them although I am sure that the B6 struts would be a significant improvement.

Pulled the trigger on some MSS springs, so hopefully I can get everything installed in about a month.

Wrapped lower black part of the rear bumper white, unfortunately after re installing it the color is a bit off, anyone know of a vinyl that's perfectly matched to Alpine White ?

BrettKA7 · 01-06-2021, 09:09 PM

Weird thing happened - someone washed JUST the rear 1/4 of my car while street parked! Wish they would have washed the wheels...

XutvJet · 01-06-2021, 10:54 PM

Installed OEM M2/3/4 6MT transmission mounts. A nice improvment in feel and robustness in the shifter feel and motion without any NVH increase. Easy install and only $43 for both.

makrop · 01-07-2021, 08:24 AM

Ordered the m performance rear diffuser!

Do you have the part number pls ?

BEM-S4 · 01-07-2021, 07:21 PM

Installed most of the M2 dry carbon interior, thanks Anubis80!!! Ordered center piece to fit my convertible should be here in a few days. Mismatch is driving my OCD nuts.

Last week got the stud set on, thanks IND!

I think you got rear ended 😅

pdx · 01-09-2021, 02:27 PM

had the "M Performance Muffler" installed by the dealership this week for my 2018 m240xc. i have only a few brief and hard drives with it so far.

quick review for cold start: so. much. noise.

quick review for sport+ mode: lots of fun noises that might get old after awhile.

quick review in eco pro mode: DROOOOOONNNNEEEEE. low rpms are not fun.

quick review of the fitment: got the carbon fiber tips. they are much bigger than the stock black tips that came with the car. they fill the whole area in the bumper. and they barely peek out, which i think is nice.

i have a call in to see if the shoppe still has my old muffler in case i cant handle the drone anymore and / or decide to grow up.

I have the Dinan exhaust and it has great sound. And doesn't have any of the drone that you're getting.

But yes, it is a little loud on a cold start too lol. But I love that part.

And in Sport+ with aggressive driving, it absolutely growls.
