Kerbed 403M Repair

Banksy · 05-11-2015, 03:10 PM

So after 16 months of careful ownership, I scrape one of those nasty width restriction kerbs up in London. Ghaaaarrrrrrrr. I may as well have scraped my face against it, such was the pain. Deeply upsetting.

Anyhow. Does anyone have any recommendations for a professional repair in the Hampshire/Surrey area? I realise there are limitations on repairing the 403Ms, being diamond cut etc but it can't be impossible.

Any help offered would be much appreciated.

I did the same recently and my local BMW garage are fixing them. Could your local dealer help?

I'd recommend anyone in the London/Surrey/SE area to go to Lepsons in Gillingham Kent

Likewise, they're one of, if not the, best in the business.

How bad is the damage? If it's just in the clear coat then you could sand it down and re lacquer yourself. I did it on mine and looks fine unless you look closely.
