New Toy!! Thanks to Autocouture, again!

Well, picked up a new toy from Sal last week and installed the bumper myself last weekend! Snapped a few shots of before and during.. but I FORGOT TO SNAP some shots AFTER I was done with the bumper. Proper photoshoot will be coming soon, I hope, if weather permits.

Here are some pictures.




Pain in the ass to take out. Took me 30 min on 1 side, trying not to break any clips. But once I know it, the other side took me less than 5 min.


test fitting


Fitted


Took me less than 5 min to put it back on but a good 1.5 hour to take it off..

Anyhow, THANKS to Sal and this is the man if anyone wants ANYTHING that is BMW, Parts or cars, he'll hook you up!! Great guy!

Hey billy, what paint shop did you use? I might goto the one you went to if it's around here. No shops here where I live will touch my m-tech rear without having them buying it from the dealer. Some kind of liability crap. And the bumper is too big to fit in the car once painted without cracking it if I took it to jersey.

send you a PM, but that liability stuff is crap!

Paint is not supposed to crap if the job is done right and using OEM paint!


Thanks sal! Love the look of my car now!! I think I am done for now, on the major items. Maybe just small ones here and there.

Thats BS dude. They're just a bunch of ass bags and want to profit to make profit on the bumper. I wouldnt trust any shop scummy enough to BS you like that.
