Roof M Stripes?

Oakleyguy · 07-02-2014, 02:57 PM

Would anyone know where to find some stripes as seen here:

GregW / Oregon · 07-02-2014, 03:32 PM

Those appear to be embedded into the resin, so don't think you can get that kind of effect.

Oakleyguy · 07-02-2014, 03:38 PM

Hmmm, I figured it was a translucent decal by the seam?

GOLFFRR · 07-02-2014, 03:40 PM

I saw this in person on the concept car and it did look like it was embedded like Greg said but not 100% sure on that. Im sure a vinyl expert can get something made out of a clear bra material that would be close look wise

Look cool, but also dark and hardly noticeable especially if it's not sunny out.

You may be correct.

That's what I like about it. A nice subtle detail.

For me this kind of thing seems like it's trying too hard* ...

Unless you're Bo or Luke Duke and then go for it! YEEEEEEEE HAAAAWWWW!

(*Note: for track days trying hard in looks and action is acceptable)

That'll work as long as the horn to plays dixie. Trying too hard? Has anyone made a thread of how many ///M logos appear on the car yet?

Cheers.

I saw this on the concept and I was really hoping it would make it to the production model. I like the fact that it's subtle. I'm not a fan of how much BMW has become an ///M badge whore.

I had a little chat about this in another forum. I really don't care how much they whore out the ///M badge. Just as long as they make an M3 or M4 as good as it is.

Cheers.

That's what I mean - why add to it? "Active sound" is an audio ///M badge as well

LOL and soon we are back at the airbags.

BMWJ · 07-03-2014, 10:57 AM

you could clear coat something in.

MischiMischi · 07-25-2014, 04:54 AM

is there any news about this M Stripe?

Would it be possible with transparent film?

Meanie · 08-01-2014, 10:46 AM

I would so be on board for something like this. On AW it would just finish the car off, especially with blacking out all the chrome bits around the car.

sherm · 08-02-2014, 03:21 PM

I like this too. Very subtle and stylish. I would definitely buy it if it was available.

GTM_Challenge · 08-05-2014, 09:44 AM

We are currently in the middle of making some test film to see if we can do this for you guys. I'll post up once we get our samples in
