No pics but I have seen it on a dark blue car and it looked quite nice, subtle but still noticeable. What colour car you thinking of putting it on?

I am not a fan of the decal.

I do love the M Performance carbon dash, though.

I think if you're not running the msport it wouldn't look right.

I personally like the decal, as you can see by my avatar I have it on my AW F10.

I think it would suit sophisto grey, however I think there is a way that you could test this out... My decal starting to peel a little where it meets the front wheel arch. Stone chips must have damaged it and after a jet wash I noticed a corner peeling.

I found that black electrical insulation tape was the exact same colour and satin black finish as the decal. I put a strip of this on as a temporary fix until I could get into a shop to get it fixed, been on there two months now and it's fine despite multiple washes so I have just left it. Perfect match and you can't see it unless your like a couple of inches away from the repair.

Not sure if you have this same tape in the Canada, if so laying out a few strips of this on the side skirt will give you an idea of how the contrast will look.

On AW like the picture I posted above Looks awesome! Just seems like on darker colors it just doesn't seem to stand out as much.

I gave in. They are cheap so I wanted to test it on my non M sport sides before I get the real deal. Springs may improve the look too later this summer. But I gained 10bhp !!! Lol

Hello to "All"

I am about to move into my third F10, First one was a 2011 rear wheel drive, second and current one is a 2012 XDrive with MSport Package on which my lease ends in November and BMW is offering me an early termination to get me into a new car now.

One of the cars I am considering is equipped with the M Performance Package which here in Canada includes 20" Wheels, Nappa Leather and the Performance Package. I really have not paid much attention in the past to the M Performace package and I cannot seem to find much details on the net , this has all come about very fast and I am going to see the car today, Carbon Black/Black.

Can some of you guys give me a rundown on the tuning aspects of this package, I have read that their is an increased horsepower and that the suspension is slightly lower than regular 535Xdrive . How does the car handle with 20" wheels? I have an extra set of 351's 19" which I use for the winter and which I would like to continue to use on my new car, will this be possible with a lower suspension? Sorry If I sound dumb, but I was all set to get a 2015 in the same configuration that I already have, this new twist came up on Friday and the cost is only $ 30.00 a month more and I like the idea of the Nappa Leather and the 20" wheels, just want to make sure this car is for me .

Also with the increased horespower, how does this effect fuel consumption.

I would appreciate any comments . Thanks

on lighter colour cars the side skirt decal looks ok, but is wasted on the darker colours imo.
