Help, front bumper spats!

[Chrisc]

If anyone has this problem, then hopefully this may be of some use.

I got the two new spats/splitters from BMW this morning, and the fit is actually worse than the reps! But better quality, although like a matte appearance

So made some templates, used aircraft grade aluminium for the bases, and slightly thinner aly for the supports. All this is hidden, and does not move when in place .

First one, and the better side


Second all riveted and fixed.



First one fixed



And back on






Gave me a chance to get new arch liners, all new bolts throughout. New screen wash filter (had one anyway) and treat the two E12 bolts.

Still think the bumper is such a sh@ design!!

Thinking about getting a vorts one, and look out for a complete unbroken original as well.
