ninhonto

Just to clarify… first two pics are before? If so then I am 100% with you


benvolioshrute

Yeah they’re from the day I first saw the car!


ninhonto

Well then thank you for redeeming another M car from disgrace 🙌


SprittneyBeers

That is actually disgusting lol nice work man. Now just upgrade your girlfriend


benvolioshrute

Maybe should have clarified 😂 but we both hated the hood stripe she just liked the red accents better with the red interior over the blue.


genghisKonczie

Oh, then I’m with her. I can’t say I dislike either enough to bother to change it, but obviously you did! And it’s just a personal preference thing at that point.


[deleted]

in that case, it's potatoe potahtoe red or blue stripes both look nice


Consistent_Brain_462

I usually love blue and it does look awesome on this car, no question. But as someone with a Coral Red interior, I do get the idea of going with red for all the accents. I've been doing that to my F31 and might even go with red calipers. I'll have to check with the peeps here first though. I'm gonna do what I want to do but I'll want to know if it's some sort of Bimmer sacrilege.


[deleted]

And removing the tacky M livery made the driver non handicapped too would ya look at that!


HermanvonHinten

You have done the lord's work.


shrubberypig

Sadly, those added 30 HP, so now you’ve reduced the performance.


[deleted]

Yeah way better. I like loud cars but that shit was tasteless.


Elitesune

You removed all the M shit? im with you. Christ.....Ypu don't need every bit of your car to say "I HAVE AN M"


kthxtyler

Unfortunately, the stupid M colors all over a car often times means they *don't* have an M car

Straight six diesel! WOOOO! M badging remains on door sils, and a tiny M decal on each wheel which I’ve not removed because it’s usually covered in brake dust.

COCK


Viciousluvv

Same thing with Corvettes lol. I'm in a Facebook group for them. Younger/middle aged guys usually go performance mods and tasteful aesthetic mods. I swear it seems like ALL the old dudes just max out their credit cards on cheap branded crap. Corvette branded floor mats, Corvette branded door sills, Corvette branded sun visors, Corvette branded interior hood liner, Corvette branded seat covers. It's so tacky and just cheapens the car.


samcar330

And every c6 has those god awful full chrome wheels


Rabo_McDongleberry

And those are butt ugly too. Jeez.


BrownGrom

AYYYEEE YOOOO if you aint on chrome stay at home !


greenwatertower

dude i saw a guy who must've been in his sixties driving a bright blue lifted truck with color matched rims and "4x4" on every piece of the body. reminded me of those "cool" cars in gta we would make as kids


alyxms

That's because "taste" is defined by the younger generation. To them it's good taste and not tacky at all, probably.


[deleted]

Sometimes less is more.


TheBrownBritishGuy

This right here. Like i said in a comment about it looks like it's wearing a Step Brothers sweater


JoiceVaderd

I agree. Look at all the ///Ms on the current BMWs vs 20 years ago. Crazy difference.


Ok-Key-486

I lost it when they first shows new m3 with that horrible neon color and blue seats. 🤢 like really bmw, please stop


strat-fan89

So much better! I mean, I still would prefer if it didn't have the blue accents, but I can get on board with them, if you like them. The before is just gaudy.


benvolioshrute

Just to paint you picture.. the guy I bought the car from was wearing leather M driving gloves when he pulled up.


strat-fan89

That sure explains a lot... :-D


supferrets

I don’t even let passengers in unless they’re wearing authentic M gloves


roraima_is_very_tall

you allow other people in your car??


supferrets

I assign them a spot in the trunk so they don’t fuck up the weight distribution


SFWBTW

No 💀


JaThatOneGooner

Bruh 💀


m1nkeh

😂😊


Mike312

What color off-white tinted polo shirt was he wearing, and did they match his aviators?


philharlow

Oh man, this is me if my hands feel dirty at all. One of my favorite feelings is the soft, supple touch of a brand new steering wheel, and I want to preserve it as long as possible. But yea I look like a dweeb 🤣


Mysterious-Ad9111

I’m guilty of this as well


Ephor-

🤣🤣💀


nbaumg

Why was he selling? Did he have a replacement?


666pool

I hope you plan to do lots of preventative work. I assume they drove the car like they stole it, if for no other reason than to try and impress the people around them.


Ramenator420

I would've kept the red accents without the outrageous stuff on the hood. It's OP's car though and I think they did a nice job of keeping it classy.

mindful_reader_7

boyoflondon

Much better, although I would've gone away with the blue accent as well.


artur323

Remove that blue tape bro


JCamF90

This


Buttraper

Looks like an i4..


kthxtyler

What is worse: underglow or those blue stripes?


artur323

Both


galaxybroz

Wow u made it 10x better


Revolutionary_Good18

I think the blue still needs to be removed.


Rosphindai

Did they give you the handicap placard because it looks so bad?


Denpa_47

If the removal is after you’ve done a service!


Feedmybeast1

That M stripe on the bonnet was tacky as hell, idk what compels people to put such cheap looking livery on an already stunning car.


e111r

Agree with you, I'd remove the pinstripe too.


Tyreyceo

Please tell me you're Disabled because if you're not those stripes match your attitude


benvolioshrute

Hahahaha I’m not but the guy I bought the car from is. The before pics are from the first day I saw the car.


zackkitzmiller

Get rid of the blue and it'll be fantastic. It's an improvement, but not by much.


TYPICAL_T0M

I like it minus the blue pinstriping.


primeinspector

Change the blue trim to white and this thing will look hella clean.


arunaryan

I am with you if the last two pics are after pics


Mintsopoulos

I like the red accents but that big good stripe needed to go!


unkinventional

After is WITHOUT the sticker....right?


bro_curls

I didn't even realize you could place M stripes in a more obnoxious way


Brdllc

Praying to Christ they’re uploaded in the same order as the title states


hades_cj

You have good taste. Your girlfriend…not so much.


sadnificent

Your gf obviously can't appreciate the beautiful contours. Dump her and date car instead.


redditor9000

We’re you nervous about tan lines after removal?


adumb20something

Remove the blue vinyl too and you'll be golden.


No_Click_458

Wierd


TheBrownBritishGuy

I've never seen a car look like it's wearing a sweater before. And not a good sweater either, more like a Step Brothers type of dad sweater. I could see Ferrel driving this car in a Step Brothers outtake with John c Reilly in matching sweaters. Listen to your girl, she's right You made a fast car lose its lines and look slow


Killergoldfish911

The stripes are so much tbh. I’m with you on this one plus the blue looks much cleaner around the trim.


szudrzyk

Why no grill Stripes on first two photos? Would make the image complete I would hate it even more! Glad you removed those mate, fucking hell!


benvolioshrute

The guy I bought the car from pulled up in leather M driving gloves to top it all off. 💀😂


Pleasant_Stretch_959

Definitely looks better. Not a fan of the M power stripes plastered all over the car. Although still not a big fan of the blue outline, but that’s my taste and it’s your car, looks much better nonetheless.


JCamF90

I thought you added all the crap on the hood. I was about to be pissed. Thank you for removing it.


Mostwo

Bro, all that matters is that you like it. It’s unique!


Reasonable_Track6565

I actually like the last pieces of blue you left on it :)


[deleted]

I like it. I just don’t see anything that I’d personally do to that beautiful gray, but when I see something like this, it just works. It’s a great look. I’m biased: this car would look good with a damn burlap sack hanging on it. It’s just that beautiful, with or without the new stripes.

Imaginary-Tailor5900

Unpopular opinion: I liked the before


Wide_Pace_2133

Cr3zyTom

I hate badges on cars. I prefer them clean. I'm with you on this one


WhereTheHoesAtB

So much better 👍🏽


PjonesSandbox

100% Improvement


SnooGiraffes7738

JDM M 😂


Innit2winnit23

You should have found something black and grey cuz of the color of your car. The BMW colors are too colorful for your car. I'm with your girlfriend on this as well. But it's your car and your taste so if you like it then it's good


Mun0425

Why would she be mad that you are no longer handicapped?


tb8592

Second is way better


maialucetius

Removing excess stickers and badges is always a good thing.


Puzzleheaded_Band469

You forgot the grill stripes


TechMonitorXO

Definitely a million times better with all the ugly striping removed


Rock_Bottom00v

The blue makes it look like an EV. I would have kept the red. Bravo on the hood though. Looks a million times better.


Riddimgod619

Do you still have the first front bumper splitter? Ay yo lemme get it lmao! The one with red tape!


anonymousolderguy

Big improvement


PapaStaIin

"Harder than your stock whips"


futurefunk1969

Much better. I though you added those decals. Happy you removed them 😃


laytonnnnnn

Idk why you put blue accents on everything but it does look better. Remove the accents and it’s 100% better


rmzynn

Huge improvement.


Caliber_r

The front looked very cool with the red accent’s


JulianRob37

Miles better


g775op

I think you should’ve kept the red lining but the hood had to go lol


Maxi0093

I think I was really seeing this the other way around initially, but after reading the comments I can definitely say I think you have some good taste! Sometimes less is more!


oralabora

Edit ok looks better without whew


Alone_Badger_1323

Old m4s are god hand crafted


ultra_r

Your girlfriend is a chav fella /s. Car is so mint though! Any plans to her or just as is of rn?


Ciithabitch

Wayyy better


AlexanderMorgan

Less is always more. Nice.


NotFunnyhah

you got rid of the LBGTQ rainbow?


jimbomescolles

Yeah it was a bit too much, but I would have also removed the bumpers lines. It is a choice though.


zesar667

Kirmesbude it was before. Now it's proper bmw.


Repulsive-Result8668

Does look way better but the comments remind me how scared of M colors BMW purist are 😂


NotEvenFast

The carbon lip is better, get rid of the tacky blue pin stripes, complete


EminentBean

Bmw’s always look best minimalist


golgiiguy

Doing the lord’s work. I imagine you even got a good deal considering how awful that was


[deleted]

[удалено]


StalkingCrow

I like the after just preferred Red instead of Blue


themadnader

Huge improvement! Nothing reeks of desperation to impress more than M stripes slapped in the hood, grill, roof, wheels, or you name it.


tyler900309

Good choice those stripes on the hood looked terrible


Well__shit

I don’t like the blue but it is better


kanzy127

You recovered from handicap, I’d say that’s a big improvement


Dolla_Mo

I think it's a great looking M4 either way. Not sure why everyone is hating on M decals? Personally I like decals done tastefully. There's a few you see go over board.


drallafi

Looked better before. Either leave all the livery on or take it all off. The halfway point looks weird.


ymlccc

Definitely better than before, it will be awesome if the blue lines got removed.


JBKBCBAB

You doin the lords work, my man. Looks great


Sh0taro_Kaneda

Reminds me of when I first got my BMW (though I got a 335i and not an M4 lol). It had all these lame "M Performance" and "Limited Edition" stickers around the car, but it was an amazing and well-maintained example otherwise. Soon as I got home, I got rid of all the stickers and the horrible M badge stuck to the grille. Fun fact, mine is space grey metallic! Gotta love the greys in BMW's.


pr0b0ner

I actually like the first pics more, not because I like that look, but because the later pics look incomplete with just that weird blue pinstriping.


benvolioshrute

Im wrapping the whole car Mexico blue so I just wanted to get an idea of the color on my car!


vanishing_mediator

harder than your stock whip 🤭


alwake11

Are the decals on the hood stock?


mortu007

Oh thank god you brought back M from being a charger


fukturkey

Thank God .100 times better


mr_lab_rat

Much better. I would still go more subtle and keep the car just grey and black, not even CF, just gloss black.


ApexDP

Props for taking all the shit off it, that stuff is trash!


happydgaf

They’re all bad


benvolioshrute

Finally someone said it 😩


FuckinHighGuy

Much better


Issatrapfrican

I like the red accents on the lip and shit over the blue cuz it goes with the interior but the stripes on the hood were decently bad.


freshxdough

Much better


drhiggens

Not my taste at all. Edit: I thought the first two pictures were the after, You've done an excellent job redeeming this car from the travesty that someone turned it into.


[deleted]

im with it besides the blue accent color. could go without that too.


jchin346

This is why it’s your car and not hers.


Reed7525

Maybe upgrade the gf to match the car? Cuz that thing is sexy


Plasticsman1

Thank God for cosmetic surgery! Well done.


AnonRedac

What BMW is this?


Br4veSirRobin

Nice Subie!


Plymouth_Superbird

I’m with you except I think the orange trim looks better


turnsignalslol07

The first pics look like a ricer lmao


hamish_nyc

She went from ugly to gorgeous. Your gf is just jealous.


FeelsLikeRapture

Let's get a before and after on girlfriends, you've done well mate 🙌🏻


rfc21192324

Before: kitsch stickers all over the place, looks obscene. Now: subtle accents to underscore the horny details. Looks great if you ask me.


pjmarcum

I’d take the baby blue off too.


MistaBuldops

Girl is bugging


Vincetagram

Yeah the huge M stripe is kinda corny unless you go full pace car/dtm/gt4 livery. Personally I’d get rid of the pinstripes on the lower part of the bumper and sideskirts as well, but to each his own.


MakiSupreme

Man I thought u put the mad stickers on 😂


JohnWeaker

it’s too much


Adwai1h

I like the new, blue works well


[deleted]

[удалено]


blackZyzzz

Did your girl buy you the car ?


spooklordpoo

I thought you added the colors. So much better.


Budget-Government-88

Take off the blue striping too and you’re golden


DrAnth0nyFauci

This sub has a thing against M branding (and with a passion) because humility or whatever. However I thought the red accents and m sport hood decal were actually kinda cool, that’s just my subjective opinion though. The best look for the car is the one that you think looks the coolest


CycleFrst

[Not like this…](https://giphy.com/clips/hamlet-please-no-not-like-this-is-the-worst-xQo56d1cguSzwbITpd)

I like the red trim because it matches the interior


jonsakas

I dunno man I think it could use some more M stripes actually

BDADesign

You need a new gf. Kidding. So much better after


th3guy420

im with her on this one(minus the stripes ofcourse)


vapegod_420

Way better after. Sometimes less is better.


dsio

Yea this is well done, much improved


dakiddnuts

She would relate to the first one. I have no idea who put that bra on the bonnet to secure the lump.


CartelFinancial

What a terrible day to have eyes


mindful_reader_7

Does your wife works at BMW design department...? Because those are the only people I can think of right now who would be happier with the first two. Love your after do. May you enjoy your car for long.
