That's not good to hear (how inconsiderate in the present economic climate) and just as you were picking up momentum too.
Fingers crossed that the plans are able to continue albeit slowly.

The side vents are only a wrap, so only need to remove both, heat gun or hair dryer over them to help peel off, and quick clean to remove residue, they are mint underneath

They were pretty easy to wrap, so be a doodle to remove.

Looks like again I cant catch a break, they must have been swapped for after market ones, as I have taken them out, and a part tonight to look at them, and they are mat black plastic, and to add insult to injury, they have chipped the paint on the wing behind where the fins though the body, and the csl mount plate has snapped off. Gutted ;0(

Car goes into local BMW specialist to look at the none operational noise flap and some play that's developed in the steering , so fingers crossed it will be ship shape again for not too many pounds, or the grills will be waiting for a long time.

Sorry to hear that mate, sold it with the wrap on the std grills so as you say must of been swapped by a new owner before you.
