My beloved donkey (E90 320i) was about to hit 200.

Gosh she has given me endless heartache, but i just could never let her go... (Gearbox, VVT, Water Pump - you name it, i have done it!) :rage:

She's in at Fantam Autobody currently - thought it'd be cool to share the progress and also the extensive Detailing work that'll go into bringing her back to immaculate condition

I still have my Original set of 18s in storage - but these are my go-to!
They do need a complete refurb though (One more thing on the list)


My levels of excitement is through the damn roof! :smilebounce:

Front and Rear bumpers removed.
The Detailer in me wants to head over there and clean up all the bits while the bumpers are off :eek:mgwaiting:

Do you have bonnet heat shield?
I see the bonnet paint fading badly.

Yip....

Well, that was clear-coat failure from a shoddy Autobody/Panelbeater
