Once I started driving the car, the Cerium bits were pretty much the last thing on my mind even though prior to that I was worried as well...

In theory, I have black grills, mirror caps and the weird little trim pieces on the front on the way from germany. I'll post part nums when i get them.
Also sounds like the bmw US supply hubs will be getting all sorts of g29 parts this week. |

Excellent! Very interested in those. Before ordering the M40i I checked out a 30i SFR with extended shadowline trim and black 799s and it looked awesome! So, unless these bits cost a fortune, I will be tempted to get them exchanged rather quickly. I would probably order CF Mirror caps though. I have them on my M235 (together with CF spoiler and CF MPE exhaust caps) and they look fantastic!

Ok, that’s a bit low by BMW. Not offering the extended shadowline option for a nominal charge from the factory, but making us order the parts and paying dealer for swapping them out. (Well, for those of us (= me) who better don’t touch anything in fear of breaking it & voiding warranties.)

I agree that Red with Cognac interior looks great.
I haven't been able to sleep as I didn't want to wait the 8+ weeks to order a Black with Red interior, so I bought a black with black interior from a dealer lot and its in-transit now. I would have loved any other color but black interior... Never thought I would sell my M235xi conv, but after test driving the M40i I just had to have the car this spring! I will miss all the positive comments I get with the red interior. Oh well. |
