Awww nightmare, are they sorting you out with a replacement?

I just assumed they’d replace the faulty one.

Looks brilliant! Makes me want to do the wheels on my Mitsi. How much was it out of interest?
Can he take the tyres on and off?Thanks

Bit more tidying up done.
The rear cubby hole and cup holders are covered in that soft touch rubberised paint that BMW was so fond of using and it was scratched up really badly and had a few people comment on it when they got into the car so it had to be sorted.
Looking on a few of the forums its seems to be a very common issue on the E92 with people climbing in and out of the back and things being placed on the trim overtime causes the scratches.
Took them out of the car and rubbed them down to remove any left over rubberised paint, then a couple of coats of primer followed by a few coats of matt black paint has got them scratch free and looking good again.
The paint I used is also quite tough so hoping its a lot more scratch resistant than the stuff BMW used.
Cubby hole has seen better days
Cup holder and cubby out of the car - gave it a good hoover whilst they were out
Cover of the drinks holder had quite a large scratch on it
Few licks of paint
And scratch free and reinstalled in the car

Picked up a red starter button as I sort of wanted to break the black up on the dash a bit.
Wasn’t too fussed on ripping my own good one apart so found a worn replacement on eBay for a fiver so ordered that instead.
Fitted it to the car but now i am in two minds whether or not I like it so might go back to the standard black. Any opinions welcome as I am really 50/50
