I got this "paint upgrade" for free because the car price was already tight and they would not discount further so I asked them for a few "goodies" and they accepted which in turn reduces spendings I would have done later on! It's something I wanted and that I would have done myself sooner or later. I did not want it all in carbon back down there to begin with and given the color of my car I am convinced that high glossy black looks slicker and matches the overall paint better while still harmonizing with the exterior carbon package. The dealer I got mine from is a non-BMW one and they had it done through a trusted 3rd party paintshop also in the area and to which the same dealer brings Astons, Lambos, AMGs, Porsches and other very expensive cars for any needed paintwork. Yesterday I had my detailer check this and he confirmed they have done a great job with it and that it looks spotless.
