Great looking M! Congrats! I’ve never really noticed the small non sport calipers on the rear before. I can’t believe they wouldn’t have a matching rear sport caliper on such an expensive car. Regardless I bet it’s an amazing ride. Enjoy

Amazing car. Simply stunning design. I love a clean black car as well and have had 5 of them (not clean for long though)
Does coating them help with keeping them clean? Ceramic coating might help them stay clean longer at the time ?

Amazing Vic! I'm normally not a black wheels on black car guy, but the yellow calipers give it just the right pop!

I appreciate everyone's comments. I really enjoy this board and interactions especially over the past 10 months when things got more remote and isolated. Thanks to the Admins for putting my thread on the home page!! Quite an honor

So SupremePower's guy apparently first completely sands and smooths out the calipers (the rears looked like shit oem with huge orange peel) and then sources OEM logos (dealer) which he places on the calipers after they are painted. Then he shoots it with clear to protect the logo.

Thanks, while it was not exactly my plan- the seats kind of work, to your point, with the calipers.
