So, small update as i'm sure some of you's wondered if I had sold it or not!

Been on holiday for a week and trying to catch up on stock prepping so the M3 has taken a back seat, sent the car down to get a freshen up on the bumpers (stone chips and rear bumper had a small score on the lower section) and decided while it was down to remove all stone chips from the front end, M3's are prone to it especially with their flared front archs and quite slab sided front bumper.

So far have some pics of the bumpers done, fantastic finish and its lovely to see the colour!

To buy the actual paint or apply it? lol he's a local guy to me that I get to do my car work, been at it a life time used to be ex main dealer.

Apply it lol.
Exploring other options for paint around this part of the country know of AG in portstewart and place in ballymoney (paintworkx ?)
Would he do public or is he more trade.
Can you send me some details if he is cool with that?

Paint works is very good too, pricey tho, I'm afraid my man doesn't entertain much private work, I have him pretty much booked up with my own stuff each week!

I'd go for option 3 with OEM and JKC logo I f you're planning on keeping it for a while, a nice plate makes a big difference to a car.

I'm thinking this too, but i'm buying an F10 M Sport shortly for my wedding and want the reg on it so its a waste of money perhaps doing it now
