M_Power Rob G87 build

M_Power Rob · 09-08-2023, 07:19 PM

Ok, here is the first stage. Rims, tires, paint correction, ppf, ceramic, tint and TRE spoiler. Black badge, IND cf roundels and color matching calipers still to go.

Looks great! Congratulations! Love the CF intakes and spoiler. What tint did you go with and %? …

No offense taken (especially from an Iggles fan...go Jalen!). Not that I am an expert but they were shot by my friend who owns the shop that does my work. Hopefully I can take some better ones tomorrow.

My phone auto-corrected to Jaylen. I usually turn it off when not at work as it causes more mistakes than corrections.

I don’t believe you.

A few better pics. Still not the best and I missed the angle of the sun I wanted. These brake pads have got to go. Rims are filthy but cant wash them yet, not until the ceramic cures.

Thanks...yes, port installed MP HAS. Its currently at BMW's setting. Want to drive it and let the suspension settle before lowering any further.

M_Power Rob · 09-18-2023, 09:57 PM

Not the best shot but car was on display at Cars and Coffee Sunday and cleaned up the brake dust off the Vossens so you can see the actual rim color.

ourlee · 10-18-2023, 06:31 PM

LOVE your hood. Looks super chill.

Hey man, do you have any rear shots of the car with the Valvetronic exhaust on? I want to see what the carbon 4.0 tips look like. Thanks!

Here are a few

M_Power Rob · 12-22-2023, 08:18 AM

Not sure why the first picture is upside down and can't seem to flip it.

Oh, do not get the titanium tips. They sent me them as a courtesy and the cut and fitment/look was awful.

Appreciate it! Those carbon tips look mean

And needless to say, there aren't any issues with the diffuser melting or anything? I kind of botched the install on my F87 with the AA single midpipe so the rear diffuser ended up almost completely melting off. Seemed to have been a common issue on the F87s

No, no issues with ~1,000 miles on it.

M_Power Rob · 04-12-2024, 09:21 AM

Been quiet on updating but not quiet on the work. Installed TRE CSL Grille (sorry for the crappy picture...just done and was dark when I got home so took picture in garage at work).

M_Power Rob · 04-12-2024, 09:24 AM

Eventuri intake also installed but have yet to take pictures.

How do you like the intake? I think that’s my next purchase as well.
