Full paint match.

RE: Project: AWD Turbo Family Hauler (PART DEUX) - .RJ - 04-16-2018

matte

RE: Project: AWD Turbo Family Hauler (PART DEUX) - JPolen01 - 04-16-2018

Gloss black. I like the matte the most, but like you said the grills won't match. Fully paint matched is way too much going on.

Edit
Actually looking at the pictures again, I think the matte will look fine with the gloss grills. Matte.

RE: Project: AWD Turbo Family Hauler (PART DEUX) - Steve85 - 04-16-2018

My favorite is bottom half color matched but I'm leaving mine matte. It came matte so I'd have to pay to have it painted and worry about the paint getting pretty beat up in short order and not looking good.

I am really feeling the Matte or Gloss. Painted options are out. Being a lip, the first time it scuffs on an incline I'll die.

I think I'm just gonna go Matte, and then try my hand at 3m wrapping it in gloss black if I'm unhappy with the Matte look.

Keep that carbon wrap train going and do that entire thing. CAREBONE ALL OF TEH THINGS

I feel faux CF is ok inside the car, but outside should be real CF

I can't find any fault in this logic

Still needs more carebones

I could go this route....

It's only 3x the price of the m perf rep.

But the thought of trashing a carbon lip makes me sick to my stomach

RE: Project: AWD Turbo Family Hauler (PART DEUX) - JPolen01 - 04-16-2018

^Unless show car, not worth the carbon tax.

RE: Project: AWD Turbo Family Hauler (PART DEUX) - Apoc - 04-16-2018

Assume you're going to whore it within a week. Not worth it.

$50 Amazon specials. Decided I liked the Dual Slat (m3/4) knockoffs.

Fit is good, some minor flaws in the finish. If they start to get f'd, I'll actually drop the coin on the Genuine BMW grills.

If anyone attempts this, I was able to use a trim tool, reaching through the grill to disengage the clips. Some tutorials just say to pull hard, or unbolt the top half of the bumper and pull it out a bit. But I was able to avoid brute force and unbolting things. If you have fat hands and hotdog fingers you may have issues.
