Phase 1 - The Body Work: Measure, Measure, Measure

This update is all about measuring the quarter panel against the chassis to see where the final cuts are needed. We measured, test fit and measured some more. Then we made initial cuts in the existing quarter panel. These were intentionally smaller than the final cuts to give us room to fine tune the fit.

As you can see from the wheel well picture, their is a significant gap between the outer 1M quarter panel and the inner 135i quarter panel. This is exactly why we got both the inner and outer quarters.

For now we are focusing on the outer quarters and getting that fit right, then we will move to the inner quarters.
