BMW M’s art work video: what an idea?

I don’t know how this idea got to BMW. The pressurized ink system was fitted near the tires which continuously sprayed ink to the tires. It was controlled through one switch fitted in the cabin of the turbocharged BMW coupe. I was surprised when I saw the video.
