I usually agree with silver being a blah color but it's something about it on E38/39 that look nice. I wanted anthracite but this one checked all the boxes option wise and had all the work done. Plus a light color in south Florida doesn't hurt

Finally got the V2 steering wheel installed. I love it. Rather big purchase for a damn steering wheel but the things the steering wheel does it rather impressive. It's been over a week and a half and I'm still learning shit. I just wish they did the tri stitch instead of white. It's not going to match the DCT or Ebrake boots but I guess I can have it restitched at one point if it bothers me.
One of these days I need to stop bulllshittin and get the test done to the car. Tri stitched boots, side skirt extensions and finally getting the headlights sanded and reclearwd with UV protective clear. Also switching brakes pad to Hawk HPS, the stoptechs are shifting in the caliper making a noise. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zN6mMW-yL4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYP4TX8tHyw

Man, it's been months since I've updated this!
The car spent 5 weeks at the shop recently getting the secondary air system replaced. We had multiple codes and the warranty approved replacing it. Also, had 7 misfires due to bad coils so those were replaced along with plugs. I had a rare leak from the rear main seal, even the shop was surprised but was also replaced. Lastly, for the shop anyway the replaced the rear window regulator as it was sticking and making noise. Luckily my warranty once again covered everything. Once it was done there it went to the body shop. I had them refinish the front bumper, fill the holes in the trunk from the wing that was installed and fix a few other imperfections in preparation for the Xpel wrap going on after the paints cured. I'm going full body Xpel including carbon fiber lip and side skirts. The rear carbon spoiler is going to get an Interlagos blue pin stripe along the back like the CRT spoiler does. I may be getting carbon mirror caps painted like the F90 M5s so only the bottom is exposed. Check iND website for that. If that's not enough, my wife and I are expecting a baby girl in May! We are beyond excited for this. My wife is adamant about me keeping the M3. She knows how much I love it and doesn't want me to sell it, so it'll be a baby hauler on days I don't use the E38. I'll update pictures once I get the M3 cleaned but it still needs to final cut and buff in a few weeks.

I'm looking forward to having a baby girl. Seeing friends with girls it's a cool thing and I'm excited. Of course, I'd love to have a boy at some point as most guys do. Best of luck with your news! Happy healthy is ultimately the main thing!

Yep, that's the standard CRT paint scheme. I think that matches better with a CF roof and/or other CF accents. I think my idea would match the painted roof better and be more unique. Either way looks really good though!

Update with pics. I'm kinda digging the no spoiler look. I may hold off on the rear spoiler and get the front lip and side skirt on to see what it looks like. Bumper, headlights and trunk came out damn near perfect!

I don't think I've seen an E90M without the slight lip on the trunklid. Do you have a shot from the rear 3/4? Curious to see what it looks like.
