You should be able to cut the arched portion off the replacement 1M panels and weld them to the 135i fenders. Still a lot of work but probably less than pulling the sides off the 135 to install the new fenders and shouldn't create any issue with the window. Nice to have steel.

The windows are the same size but obviously have to be removed from one then reinstalled in the other. It definitely cost more but I like the additional piece of mind of having a complete 1piece steel rear quarter sorry for thread jack op |

Have you seen the specs of the new M3 and M4? Lots of 1M haters swinging from those nuts already. |

I thought about doing OEM 1M rear quarters. I probably would have gone with cutting and just welding the rear fender instead of the whole panel had I thought of it. Some shops warned me that grafting the entire panel would cost more, possibly require new glass for both side windows and rear glass, and surely steel, and rigidity could possibly be compromised slightly. This info came from a very reputable shop.
Curae, your car looks amazing - why have you not started a project log?! I have to agree. There looks to be a lot more 1m blood in the m3/m4 than e9x..... Just saying.... |
