Over the weekend I replaced the side indicators with colour coded ones, genuine BMW part's as the ebay covers you can get are crap.



Stuff arrived today, Tyre's and gloss black grills

Bought the whole unit, around £75 the pair from BMW, the thing is when you try and remove the initial repeater every thing snaps as its brittle. Did the same to my GT...

I couldn't get it to fit either so called them, As they did the quad conversion they also fitted the defuser, after removing the defuser there was some plastic trim that needed removing, they cut that away and hey presto, it fitted as it should.

Happy days wish they would of told me that, would of saved alot of hassle, and calls to ebay. instead there response was that it fits no questions! Well technically it doesnt if you need to modify the said plastic support bracket, which if i had known what to do i would of done it no probs however ended up forking out another couple of hundread on a carbon taiwan jobbie.

Ar well we live n learn

Wheels look great 👍🏽

Remove the badge, looks great and is a giggle when people assume you've got a 520d because it's debadged
