Some Updates on the 1 series.

During the month of Feb, I purchased a set OEM 313, which is the same set for sale now. They look absolutely beautiful on the car, but coupled with the HNR drop, and the 225 and 255 tyres I'm running, it just touched way too much.

My panel beater refused to roll the arches, as he said he doesn't wanna risk damaging the paint. Some pics of the car with the 313s, and some of the aftermarket headlights I purchased and decided to Blackout.

Due to 1er being the daily and doing school runs daily, there no time to sort out bigger things that needed some attention, during the April school holidays, the car was sent in for some cosmetic changes, and some removal of dents etc.

In Feb, the Garage door chain decided to snap whilst I was reversing out. I guess these things happen, and of recent I try not to get upset about things that out of my hands. The roof spoiler took the biggest hit, and broke in half, aerial brok and some scratches on the roof and dents. The bonnet had a mark as well, when the bakkie door was opened onto the 1er. The wife was more upset about all this more then I :rollsmile:

In any case, it took me a month to source a new spoiler. I decided to go with the Carbon Fiber Schnitzer Rep spoiler again. Bought a new aerial as well at a cost of R600 from Bmw Autoglen BMW.

List of items/work that was carried out
1. New roof Spoiler
2. New Aerial
3. New BMW performance Side skirts
4. Repairs to Roof
5. Removal of dents
6. Respray bonnet
7. Spray callipers Red
8. Refurbish the 135 rims


Some pics taken after completion of all the work.
