BMW body shop just seem to be trying every excuse under the sun!

I do feel like naming and shaming.

I would have a LOT more respect for a garage that was honest and admitted the possibility that they may have actually done it wrong!

Very nice, that strut brace looks a close fit, does it touch on acceleration or deceleration ?

Hi sorry to hear of your bad luck, I have the same model and colour as you albeit somewhat higher mileage (161k miles). I replaced the wings on mine not long ago, it is quite a simple job, and you don't need to completely remove the bootlid. There are 4/5 bolts where the wing meets the boot (open t...

It is a facelift model.

Was really annoyed. I have kept my car mint, garaged it and only done 35,000 miles.

Cannot afford to claim due to the excess and they would put my premium up next year and its not even my fault. :head:

Rear N/S/R wing replacement & bumper & light cluster

Some nice person hit my Z3 and drove off...

How easy is it to replace the rear wing? Is it bolt on?

Also if anyone has a Topaz Blue rear bumper, N/S/R wing and light cluster for sale I'd love to hear from you.
