Pic request: Blacked out MW

MegaMatt3 · 07-31-2015, 05:53 PM

I'm considering orbit grey wheels, and I like mineral white, but I'm on the fence with the color combo. If I did it, I'd have to get the black grille, mirror caps, and add tint. Anyone have any pics of this setup?

Thanks.

Ditto here...looking at MW with orbit gray wheels. Not sure I want to go black on the windows, but the grill is a must. I'd love to see MW with dark wheels.

Right. To clarify, I wouldn't go black-black for tint, but I'd do something more than factory.

My 2016 drive m235 Convertible is almost done with production. MW, CR, Black moonlight top, orbit gray wheels, black grills. We shall see how the combo looks.

Is this what you mean?

MegaMatt3 · 08-01-2015, 05:33 AM

Yes! Is that MW? Do you have pics of other angles?

Also, those are 19s, right? The Orbit Grey wheels will be 18s.

I really want to get those front blade thingies that are in the air dams in Euro versions, but I can't seem to find any info about getting them in the States.

Yep this is MW, with Terra interior. 19s 624 M Black wheels. It seems weird why you guys in USA do not get the little silver thingies in the air dams. Although I'm happy with them on.

I put up a photo (just Iphone) and very dirty car with a slight bit of sun. Hope this is what you are looking for?

I don't know but think the Orbit Grey 18s will be a lot lighter in color than these black rims I have, although in the configurator they seem almost black. There are other posts where I saw 435 coupe with Orbit Grey wheels.

Ugggg can't decide AW or MW

MegaMatt3 · 08-01-2015, 01:25 PM

I saw the two side by side and couldn't even tell the difference. I just sort of picked MW.

in the right light MW is amazing.

I think the US market gets extra radiators behind the front grills (hot weather package), that may be why in the US they are black with holes for air flow and no silver stripe.

We're off-topic now, but I'd totally pay money for aftermarket versions of those blades if I could find them.
