T1M3LESS /// G87 M2 Build Thread (Voodoo Blue Individual

BIMMERPOST

Back again with another one.After 2 F80 M3s, a 992 C2S, and more recently, a G80 M3 CS, this G87 M2 felt like the right next chapter – smaller, meaner, and more raw.

It’s that rare mix of modern performance and old-school BMW feel that’s getting harder to find.

Seeing the M2 in person for the first time, it immediately caught my eye. The proportions are wild! It’s wide and short in a way that looks both cartoonish and muscular.

It has that “bulldog stance” right out of the box. The wide track, flared fenders, strong haunches, and short overhangs make it look ready to pounce even when parked. That first impression stuck.

Then I saw this in Voodoo Blue AND with a 6-speed. That sealed the deal.

Like my previous builds, the approach remains the same: clean and OEM+. I’m not into over-the-top mods. Just refinement.

⚙️ Current Setup

Performance & Suspension:

  • AST Adjustable Springs (carried over from M3 CS)
  • Eventuri Intakes + strut brace + engine cover in matte CF

Appreciate all the inspiration I’ve gotten from the Bimmerpost community over the years and hope to continue that energy here.

“Now go do that voodoo that you do so well… “

Stay tuned for updates, details, and maybe a few behind-the-scenes looks into the process.
