RIP Chris. I always enjoyed when I'd see him show up in KIES videos.

[@AllOutProductions]

bruh that hood could have been an easy fitment fix. I put 2 washers under the front bumper screws directly under the front of the hood. brought up left and right and just by physics the centre of the bumper went down. matched flawlessly.

[@MikeyG003]

Got attention to detail like me lol, did same stuff to my f80 plus ceramic/ ppf/ paint corrected. I thought the rear gets less hydrophobic due to all the debris and dirt that gets on the back as well as the brake dust and tire dust. I noticed hitting it with a iron remover def helps bring the hydrophobic properties back.

I bought the m mirror caps in carbon print because the two series had some serious whistling noise above 150. They remedied this problem, so I then bought carbon m mirror caps.

[@M3_Foss]

Really digging you going with the OEM look. Have you considered using CarPro DLUX as a high temp ceramic for the rear? You can apply that stuff to calipers and wheels. Just seems like a pain to have to reapply ceramic every few months. Cars looking great man! Loving the content!

[@KiranPatel-fk1pg]

It's very tacky and not slick, so no good for paintwork

[@boostdis3114]

I bet you could manipulate the front bumper to fit to the hood. I’ve been experimenting for awhile with my e92 bumper gap. Loosened every bolt held it where I wanted, then tightened. Good luck, nice channel🤙

[@mrbrown919mb]

If your gonna spend a ton of 💰 for aftermarket parts that guarantees perfect fitment, then nobody should have to manipulate anything

I'll definitely be at the Kies show! Didn't get to meet you last time but hopefully this year!

[@scottcrawford6451]

Maybe it's because I've owned my nearly stock 1968 Dodge Charger R/T for 45 years but I've always loved and stood by OEM. In my humble opinion, the manufacturers have done their absolute best to balance appearance, performance, durability, cost, and maintenance, and why mess with it. I'm not a pure stock guy though, I definitely appreciate the subtly of just the right accent and performance pieces on a car, just enough to make it yours. I love my Glacier Silver 428xi convertible and it doesn't bother me in the least that it's not an M car. Of course I love and respect what the M car represents but there's room for both in this world. Who knows, maybe you started an OEM revolution. As always a great job on the video!

Yeah, dealerships, and high end owners can be douches sometimes.... They all laughes at me at my florida dealership when I took my 228i in for new rotors... as it's all kitted up.

about the bumper to hood fitment. I would try to shim the bumper on the exterior bolt with some washers in between to rise the bumper up on that corner

[@ThicWhips]

I did that on both ends already. You can only shim so high, there is a clip on your headlights that hold the bumper down, take a look at your bumper/headlight area and you’ll see what I mean

Pro tip for the hood alignment - completely remove the bumper -on the front rad support loosen the latch points pull up as high possible .25 turn when snugging up so they are loose enough to close the hood and you pull or push where needed - slap the bumper on do not bolt up check alignment - rinse and repeat until fitted spot on - have a beer 🍺
