Midnight Silver - Show Your Stuff

is that the Arlington Superchargers!?

Good eye! We were visiting the Tulalip Outlets and decided to go out of our way to try a supercharger for the first time.

After becoming very familiar with the charging network available to my i3, I was happy to see such a nice charging station. The best part was that I didn’t have to do the usual plug in, unplug, repeat routine due to charger errors and was able to successfully start the charge within a split second of plugging in, which is unlike what I’m used to with the networks available to my i3. This may seem insignificant to some, but OMG, I can really appreciate it now. Electrify America’s network is a joke in comparison when it comes to the users experience and until they fix their handshake process with the car so that isn’t so prone to errors, I won’t buy another EV that relies on it.

yeah, that Arlington station has a lot of chargers too! I was there a couple months ago on my way back south from Whidbey! (Sorry, I know she is white. Traded for Midnight Silver Y)!

Looks like MSM and Performance model are strongly correlated, at least based on the samples from this thread so far. I guess the Uberturbines and MSM suit each other very well.

@Vistan loving the uncovered 19" rims with the MSM

@Vistan nice. Mine should look like that when I pick it up on Friday. As I’m older now I told myself I will not modify anything on this car. Let’s see how long that will last.

 

[Jtheorry]

Yeah, good luck with that idea!

Said I would leave this car stock since I’m older now and have a family but I couldn’t help myself once I got it.

Here are my before and after.

What color are the wheels and wheel covers powder coated? Im debating whether if I should get the inductions or just powder coat the geminis with my MSM.

I was going to get the inductions too but didn’t want to spend anymore money than I had to knowing the wheels underneath were nice enough.

Wheel covers I sprayed painted with Rust-Oleum Universal Metallic - Carbon Mist color from Home Depot. The wheels I sanded down, did 3 coats of the same paint (1 hour between each coat) and then 2 coats of clear with 1 hour breaks between each. Sprayed the lug nut covers I got off Amazon the same to match. So far they’ve been holding up amazingly well (been 3 months) and I haven’t gone back to the hub caps.

Next thing is painting the brake calipers red too. I already got the paint kit but haven’t had time.

Love black wheels but this with white interior is great combo as well.

did anyone here have trouble deciding between blue and gray?

I didn’t hesitate on the MSM at all. It was either white or MSM. Blue is too boy racer look (my personal opinion).

I had a blue M3 before purchasing the Y... I really like both but definitely have to say the blue with the chrome delete of the Y catches my eye anytime I see it on the road and makes me think about whether or not I made the right decision to go MSM on my Y.

@rensupreme yes. we haven't ordered quite yet but are down to these two colours. I love both and it's very difficult to choose, but think we are leaning toward MSM.

Here's mine when I picked it up in Fremont.

Ahhh I think asking for opinions on this made the decision even harder. Especially with a picture of both of these side by side in the previous post haha
