Hey buddy, car is looking great, where did you get your rear diffuser from and how much also your side vents too?

Rear diffuser is the m-performance one and was from Cotswold Group was £675. Side vents are carbon fibre from IND in the states and were $500 plus you have to pay a customs surcharge Overall this was a bit too much for what they are but I do like the look.
Exhaust is standard akra with carbon tips.

Yeah I was looking at IND for all my carbon that I want doing, I have front splitter and boot lip done just want diffuser front grills side vents and steering wheel, is the rear diffuser a good fit, I think I’ll take a look at them.

To confirm the diffuser was a BMW part it fit fine and I used this guide to install it - http://www.6post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=927817

Cotswold BMW parts - http://www.cotswoldgroup.com/bmw/ser...d-accessories/

Trinity Motorsport for the IND grills - https://www.trinityautosport.com/car...r-side-markers

The carbon really pops on your car against the blue

Thanks buddy just spoke to cotswold and they can get it for £720 for me so not to bad, not sure the side vents are worth the $700. But as you say I think carbon goes really well with the San Marino blue, thanks for your help buddy car looks great

thanks for the kind words no worries about the help, the side vents are a tough call they are expensive but the carbon does add an extra element and matches the interior and roof carbon some more pics as the others were quite small.

With your warranty renewal was your quote from BMW or an aftermarket company and do you know what the stipulation are to get a BMW warranty extension (ie serviced at a main dealer, minimal mods)?

Yeah I like them and they suit the car very well I may do a few other things before that mod,

My quote was from bmw itself just put my reg in and miles and that’s what I was quoted, at bmw it says it’s not aloud to be modded doesn’t say like carbon parts or anything I think mechanically wise like remap exhaust downpipes it says it all on the terms and conditions but there is like 50 pages to read and I am not doing that lol take a look maybe your more patient lol

New pictures up close they do look good, how much was the shipping etc etc from IND as I done a wish list and the cheapest shipping was like $700

Shipping was $50 via USPS for the side grills, then there was a wait and customs charge of about £90. The cheapest I found on the internet was $500 here

https://www.horsepowerfreaks.com/ind...151569815.html

but I got mine from Trinity Motorsport.

I tried to put my reg in the BMW quote site but as I have a n active warranty it would not give me a quote.

Hmm I am test driving one tomorrow.That has a vin G798279. It was registered on 30 Nov 17, but the production week was 13/3/17. I know it was before May 17, but thought it might help your register.
How many have been sold to in the UK, do you know?

I have been offered an unregistered Atlantis Blue and Heera Blue, both comp packs, but still too expensive.

Thanks. Hera looks really nice but also seems like it would be similar to San Marino, I'm not sure why you'd bother with individual.

I may have mentioned previously most of the unregistered are individual. Hera, Atlantis, Ferrari red(x2) can't remember the other two colours. I'm considering the Grigio Telesto.

Other way around actually, the Coupe stopped about 5 months ago and the GC and vert are just stopping now.
