PPF and Tint done! Weee!

bri1042 · 09-12-2018, 08:24 PM

Full hood, usual other bits covered in PPF, and I stuck with a legal Oregon tint. The vendor my dealer uses did a great job.

My fabulous loaner for the day was an '18 zero-option 330i X-Drive. It was, um, well, what it was. I was really happy to get back into my car.

You should consider driving it down to the Bay Area and seeing if you can sell it for $25k market adjustment.

What % tint is that on the sides / rear? Looks good!

bri1042 · 09-13-2018, 04:24 AM

It's 35%, the Oregon legal limit, the same as I had on my 340.

Looks awesome.

Any other cosmetic/CF bits planned?

More pictures please!

HODLM · 09-13-2018, 09:14 AM

The M2C wheels seem to work best with LBB. Otherwise I much prefer 437 and 763 (and even the devil rims themselves, the comp 666's).

Not right now. I need to buy Winter wheels and tires, and at some point get my audio equipment installed. Down the line I might do something else, but those 3 items come first.

Sort of an awkward angle, but I was in a hurry to get home before the rain hit again.

Ya know, I didn't want LBB because I think a lot of OG M2's were this color (including one in my neighborhood), but that picture with the dark wheels looks SOOOOOO good!

Damn, and congratulations!

StLuis51 · 09-13-2018, 11:57 AM

Man the tint looks really clean. Very nice. Congrats on the car.

Do you have any photos of the front at different angles?

plastus · 09-13-2018, 12:15 PM

Car looks great! Which brand and type of tint did you go with?

bri1042 · 09-13-2018, 02:22 PM

Suntek CXP. I had it on my last car and liked it a lot.

A couple of front shots as requested (one from when it became a real Oregon car...it got rained on for the first time) and the other in our garage.

I'll get more shots that include the tint on the front windows when it isn't raining.

AlpsRider · 09-13-2018, 03:08 PM

Thanks! It looks so bad ass! I'm on the home stretch myself with my LBB Jewel.

hellrotm · 09-13-2018, 03:46 PM

LBB looks great!

kart driver · 09-14-2018, 12:55 AM

Congrats! I just knew the LBB will look great with dark comp rims.

I ordered the same configuration. Can’t wait to pick mine coming Monday in BMW Welt.
