Update: 4th July
So... this is the beginning of a bigger update
Due to the bootlid getting keyed and the 3 series usual added feature of rust on the front wings after ten years I have decided to bring the BMW back to former glory with wing replacement and full respray in Sapphire Black again. Also new front grills and splitters and a few unique modifications to the bodywork during the respray. Wheel change and few other interior mods.
Il try and keep photographs and stages of progress updated on this.
So firstly priced around for wings and decided to stick with OEM and priced all of the dealers in the North, of which JKC BMW Coleraine were the best on price (by £10 per wing) and also delivered the wings to Cookstown for me free of charge and next day. So was really impressed with their service! Could have went for cheaper parts but didnt want any poor fitment issues with spurious parts.
Estimated date of completion is around the 18th July![Thumbs Up (y) (y)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
