My Fräulein finally arrived !

Hi guys,

My individual comp pack finally arrived and I have taken delivery. Have loved M since I was a kid and finally, I have achieved that goal.

Mods are pretty basic at this point.

: Wheels in gloss black
: Tint
: Carbon Front blades
: Carbon Rear Splitter
: Individual Paint
: Individual Interior
: Carbon Steering wheel inserts

I have a few more bits and pieces arriving soon. Will be getting spacers and the BMW lowers suspension when available.

Sorry about the lousy pics - just iPhone pics on an overcast delivery day.

So happy to finally have a German mistress!

Thanks for looking,

Darryn

Congrats! Very nice color!
But I sincerely hope you didn't drill holes for the front license plate

Awesome combination. I wouldn't normally like Atlantis Blue but I've seen some stunning examples now. Have you seen this one from Canada? It would have to be one of my favourites. Some extra mods to consider.

BTW what tyres and rim size is the competition pack? The rear tyre looks a little stretched in your photos.

the zcp wheels are same width as the 19s with 10mm wider rubber

20x9 265/30
20x10 285/30

i agree it looks under tyred, same thing i thought to myself when seeing in person, but the rubber is wider

it's just the sidewall profile being a 30 series vs 35 on the 19s

i'm thinking of trying a 35 series on front to fill guards and provide some better ride comfort - same tyre + rim size setup as m5. ill wait for the new michelin ps 4s

20x9 265/35
20x10 295/30

Thanks for that - I don't really like the lip, just looks "tacked on" IMO.

I like the Atlantis blue in the quote, I nearly went for it.

In the end though – I truly love the individual Blue I managed to get. Seems to change to about 6 to 8 different shades, depending on the light.

Cheers

Look forward to meeting you!

I nearly pulled the trigger on the Jahre, I just couldn't get past the dark colour. It is stunning, just wanted something a little easier to keep looking mint,

Cheers
