Is the Cannock in your handle anything to do with Cannock Chase?
Was on an ISO 9001 course many moons ago with a guy who used to cycle/walk in that area - think he lived near Wolverhampton IIRC?

Ahh I see, I've no idea why I remember Cannock Chase, it was 1998 and I've never came across it before or since ??

cannockwolf the car is looking great, wish I had the confidence to do some of the stuff you have but I'm a bit cack handed lol
One question re the 50th anniversary badge on the steering wheel, is it a sticker or a metal badge and if a badge did it fit over the top of the original or did you have to remove the old one?

Thanks

I wasn’t so thanks for the tip 👍🏻

Prince Thundernight · 01-12-2024, 05:43 PM

Yes I had to use a further two pieces until it made contact with the original badge.

Nice to see someone from the same area, sure I’ve seen you about in the E46 a few times. Haven’t spotted the M240i yet though.

Currently got a yas blue M4 you may have seen, just purchased a M240i and this thread is going to cost me alot of additional money

Did you declare the grille meshes to the insurance?
I quite like them but the pain of describing what they are to insurance is putting me off. Mind you, i did the seat backs as you know and didn’t declare them.

I had mentioned everything i didto it, took ages lol, but they dont list half the stuff i told them on the insurance, same with the E46 too, it needs to fit in their catagories i think to matter
