Ha, just posted that-
I just noticed that the "Lightweight Titanauspuffanlagen" 1M has the side grille stickered so it looks like it's an open grille. Looks pretty good after looking here http://www.mycarportal.net/wp-conten...toshoot-09.jpg And here http://www.titanauspuffanlagen.de/content/bmw_m1.htm |

people may laugh, but it'll be easier that vinyl to apply since the crease seems like a difficult area for the vinyl cuts and application to be perfect. no air bubbles. no risk of edges peeling. cheap enough to just keep spraying on if you ever experience peeling; but I used to have the regular plast-dip on my work truck, and it was pretty durable, even through car washes. |

Cutting, carbon part glueing, vinyl, paint, spray, etc.
But what about simply a mini-wrap: just the crease/vents in your fave color (even in the three colors of the ///M logo, if you like) ? |

Just noticed that, alike the 1M, the new M6 also gets closed side crease/vents.
@Papethova: sure you want to proceed with your plans to open the ones on your 1M ? (+ what about rain infiltration ?) Source: http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=647291 + http://www.6post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=647170 Other detail: unlike the 1M, the M6 side intakes get a mesh grille (ditto for the future M3) Last edited by Artemis; 02-11-2012 at 06:04 PM.. |

If BMW continues to incorporate a closed crease though, I may have to leave it. Ill reconsider when the time comes to actually do this. Yes I saw that it looks good. I just think the vinyl extends too far on the bottom and maybe even the top. |

I like the mesh grill in the intakes. I wonder if there is some way we can incorporate this onto our cars.

I easily can do that. Im working on mesh in the rear bumper right now... not the oem front mesh. Ill have pics but the openings are so small it may not make much of a noticeable difference

I dont see a point of a CF wrap. The look of the CF doesnt appeal to me. If its CF then that is different because thats the look of CF but to wrap something to look like CF just isnt my thing.
