Picked car... incorrect trim

WAY · 07-09-2008, 07:39 PM

Haha I was just joshing. I would definitely pay for my son's wedding. My parents (and in laws) paid for ours! And it cost them A LOT OF MONEY!!!

$1.2k? Is that all????? I will buy a set if that is the case...

Zuzu · 07-09-2008, 07:45 PM

Tell me about it...

I have been married 24 odd years and didnt realise the cost of weddings has risen so much...
Especially somewhere decent..
SHOW ME THE MONEY..$$$$$

Kris · 07-09-2008, 08:01 PM

$1.2k is chump change eh Wayne

WAY · 07-09-2008, 08:18 PM

No not really Kris, but CF trim for $1200 is definitely reasonble in my eyes.

professor · 07-09-2008, 08:28 PM

it cannot be 1200 for all the bits and pieces joe. maybe it was a special "sorry-we-are-such-schmucks" price for you?

Zuzu · 07-09-2008, 08:31 PM

You think so?
I never had it priced any where else..

WAY · 07-10-2008, 02:06 AM

I agree with Prateek. If anyone can find it for me for $1200 I will jump at it!

Btw Joe, how much is wedding reception these days? When I had mine almost 4 years ago, we paid about $250 per head just for the reception but this is at a very high end place. On average you will be paying $120-150 per head.

Zuzu · 07-10-2008, 02:31 AM

Well...you are pretty close..
We are having a lunch wedding seeing my son has two little ones..
One being only 8 weeks old.:wub:

Plus my parents are in their 80's so thay will be in bed by 8pm.

Lunch works out at $150 per head and if it was an evening reception $195.

Were did you get married at to be $250 per head?

This is at the "Waters Edge" Pier One on Sydney harbour overlooking the Harbour Bridge and Opera House..:drinking:

Park Hyatt.

You must be rapt with the grand kids. I know my parents are!

Zuzu · 07-10-2008, 02:44 AM

Park Hyatt is where I got them a room for their Honeymoon night..

Love the grand kids to death..:wub:

Went out yesterday and purchased a baby booster for the vert..

Had to find a slimline one which i did..

Now we have baby seats in all three of our cars...hehehe

I got a price for the CF interior trim from Melbourne BMW's part department a few weeks ago. The cost is

CF Trim Dash $333+gst
Door Handles $205+gst each
Cenre consolle $555+GST
Ashtray Cover $91+GST
Gearshift surround $329+GST

TOTAL $1718+GST

WAY · 07-10-2008, 03:25 AM

Hmm, interesting. Not as bad as I thought it would be...

Zuzu · 07-10-2008, 04:21 AM

Yeh that sounds about right..
I got quoted $1200 which is probably their cost..25-30% OFF retail.

VonBeige · 07-10-2008, 05:06 AM

Interesting...........

As i didn't have the option of custom building my vehicle i have to accept the plain gloss black interior trim that it will be delivered with. Though i really want wood grain instead and having spoken to someone there at Sylvania they said they could possibly swap it over from a sportier(125/135) model that they might get in stock as black seems to blend better with those vehicles.

So in the event they are unable to swap the trim over from a vehicle they have in stock, i'll be willing to swap with anyone interested on this board who has any sort of wood trim for the gloss black that will be in my car. Will find out on the 19th...

i notice theres a DIY removal guide and it looks quite easily done with the tool shown in the guide.

Also the dealer there at Sylvania mentioned he changed a 135 silver bubble trim over to black, i wonder whos car that was :wink::wink:
