Lol...that was the plan when I bought the car. We had no stock of the bumper when I bought the car hence I went 135 bumper. But daym...it looks sweet.

I want to do it like yesterday but finding the fenders and that lip for the bumper is so hard. If someone here in can find me all the parts needed at a decent price ill do it. :rollsmile:

These fenders

Lip I can get for you.... fenders you will have find a 1m being scrapped. Same applies to the bumper, unless you go with the e87 1m Rep bumper. We have 2 more coming in September.

Haven't updated my threads in a while, been busy more urgent things.

Did some interior changes to the 1er.

Gear knob was worn badly, decided to replace it. With the 1er being manual, I've always loved the illuminated gear knobs, so it was no brainer what I was going to do. Moe from AUTO-X-CESSORIZE sourced me an E39 Illuminated Gear knob and Boot. obviously it came with the 5 speed plastic top, so we just sourced the 6 speed and replaced it as well. The trim of the E39 and e87 are not the same, so using a heat gun, I removed the plastic shroud of the e87 gear boot trim and the e39 oem one and just swopped them around. Use some black silicon to keep the new boot cover attached to the 1ers shroud.

Then I had the wiring for power of the gear knob. Found it real PITA to remove the ashtray and tap into the Cigarette light socket there, so I traced the wires from the socket under the arm rest and did a quick test for power. Once I was happy with the power supplied, I purchased some posi taps from builders warehouse, and just tapped in them at the closest point near the gear knob.

Pics of the Work done.

Next up was the paddles, replaced the oem ones with some aluminium paddles from AUTO-X-CESSORIZE again, very easily install and small 4 small holes required to be drilled into the accelerator paddle for the new ones to sit firm.

Pics before and after.

Last was the removal of the yellow headlight, park light and interior lighting globes. Headlight replaced with Phillips, interior and parks with white Led error cancelling globes. Really happy with the outcome.

Is there a on/off switch to disable the passenger airbag? (presume you have it off, with the baby seat? )
