2013 M6 Coupe Sapphire Black

First thread. Took possession of this m6 almost 3 months ago and all mods just completed. Mods are as follows;

Ind gloss black front grill
Ind black side grills
Ind color matched side markers
Ind matte black m6 emblem

21" Niche "Essen" wheels in satin black
Michelin super sports 265 in front and 295 in rear
15mm spacers in front 20mm in rear
Lowered on H&R springs
Meisterschaft GT exhaust with 102 mm Matte black tips (No valve, which saved a lot of $$ and don't see the purpose of it unless I add mid pipe or down pipes).

The pop sounds the exhaust makes through quick gear changes is amazing (especially between 2nd and 3rd). Such a distinct sound. Didn't notice any drone either. Thought it would be an issue from other posts I've read, but cant really tell much of a difference.

Wheels, springs, and exhaust all purchased and installed through Need For Speed Motorsports in Glendale. Paul took real good care of me and their work and prices were great. Couldn't ask for more.

The wheels aren't the usual adv.1 or hre, but for the look and cost savings I'm extremely happy with how everything came out. The car is a short term lease so was hesitant going for the 10k wheel/tire set up and 8k or so Akrapovic exhaust.

Sold my 2008 M6 Coupe in Space Gray before I got this one, and overall the new one is just such a complete car. The way it pulls and the quicker gear changes are so much more noticeable. Obviously I miss just the rawness of the V10 and its sound, but this is a better car hands down.

Lastly, yes I know my pics suck. I'll try to take some better ones later.

Lovely, I think you need carbon fiber tips to match

Thanks. That was my first preference but was told that the carbon tips from meisterschaft over time dont look good so went with the matte tips to contrast the wheels instead.

I am not usually a fan of the all black "murdered out" look but on some cars it looks really good. I will say your car falls in the "really good" category. It looks badass man! Well done!
