Cannockwolf's M240i

cannockwolf · 06-21-2023, 05:23 AM

My head is about 2 sizes bigger after this morning.

I was waiting in Wickes car park (hardware store) for my collection notification to come through and I had a tap on the door, a mid 30's woman said she thought my car was beautiful and amazing,

and the husband shouted the same, the most bizarre thing I have ever experienced with a car, ngl I could get used to that

Yeah, according to a friend, car parks are renowned places for dogging when stores are closed

Zunsport grilles fitted, I havent got the Cooling package so didnt realise i would have no oil rads behind the grills so it turns out these are a bit pointless now but at least it stops crap getting in there and looks cool

I wanted to use my clips but the way it's screwed to the bumper I would have to fill and paint it 😩

JoeyJoeJo · 06-23-2023, 04:53 PM

How are the grills secured, wasn't clear from the website, are there clips that grip existing trim or is there a retaining bar or something behind?

Terrific, thanks. You think they'd come off without marking?

you have to pop a thin screwdriver through the grille to lift the hooks up then pull out, so if very careful i think so yeah, but i suppose theres always a chance,

perhaps putting some ppf over the slats to protect them wouldnt be a bad idea and couldnt be seen, you could do it yourself too so would be a cheap solution
