sweet. Im not sure when Im doing it exactly, cos Im still waiting on the parts from Stu and dont have a clear ETA. when they come in Ill have a better idea, but probably beginning of next year for me too. bit of a pain since my wheels and breaks should be ready to go latwr this month!
venom, not sure of the exact cost of install... the panels are costing me about 750 each. the process is the same as replacing a damaged rear quarter on a 135i.
this is the path tony from adv1 went down, you should hit him up for cost if hes willing to share
An OEM shop has quoted me 7-10k range for replacing the quarter panels. The reason I ask is because my quarter and rear bumper were recently damaged so if I could get as much info to this collision shop on how to replace it with OEM 1M parts to mitigate that huge cost I would like to. Otherwise I would have to forgo the 1M rear end idea. This is the ideal time for this to happen because my car was in a collision and I want to use this opportunity to improve my car
