Got a quote from a BMW dealer here in Ireland last week for one €1090 + VAT!

Re-trim I think

Beats me! Tried getting it done under goodwill as the alcantara has worn through in patches but they weren't having any of it! Sending it off to a guy in Abingdon next week for a retrim..... £145 including postage!

Sample of his work

Asked my dealer the same thing,£900 +vat.

I'm getting mine retrimmed by this guy. It all sounds a bit shady, but its genuine.

His email addy is jamizerski@yahoo.co.uk - tel is 07894 209349 and his name is Jack.

lots of entries on m3cutters for his work.

£130.

^^^ That's the guy! Takes a while for him to reply but he will! Definitely sounds dodgy but he is highly recommended so I'm going to take my chances!

Lots of people have had wheels trimmed by him ,so dont worry he is a good guy.

Alternatively there is transcal, I used these guys.
Excellent job too

, and for very similar price if not cheaper.

Please post up pics when returned as this sounds way rather than a dealers grands worth
