Hi,

Just sold my B7 RS4 and now back in the BMW family.

Got myself a mint 08 reg 325i coupe M Sport auto, 2 prev owners, only 43k with full BMWMDSH in Le Mans Blue with the light grey leather interior and have got to say, I LOVE it.

Took me over 6 months to find this car !!

Looking around the car I was disappointed to see the horrible grey brake callipers, rang my local BMW dealer asking about covers, but they don't stock them.

Has anyone fitted them, had them on a while and had no problems with them ?

If so could you give the details of the supplier etc.

I KNOW it could affect the performance of the brakes but I'm not going to be tracking it or driving it like a 17yr old chav, I just think some black covers with say the BMW 'M' logo on would be a vast improvement.

Any comments, good or bad, along with any photos, would be appreciated.

Cheers

      Steering wheel replacement

      Morning Connah Welcome to the Forum Not sure what you are trying to achieve here ? If your OEM steering wheel has paddle shifts it should be fairly straight forward swap even though the replacement will probably be Aftermarket. Just make sure you can get support from the seller and they accept returns if it didn't fit If you don't have paddle shifts there is the small issue of how you can get the shift to work, it will involve loom extensions and programming at least. If you just want the competition look and are not worried about the operation then it becomes easier Good Luck Dave

      F30 A-pillar install

      Morning Shawn Other than checking www.realoem.com and the Internet for help, it's not a job I have done but that would be my starting point. Perseverance, patience and practice may help as well 😅 plastic clips are easy to break if they are not spot on with alignment. I buy spares before starting any job that involves taking trim off, try trial fitting the clips off the car gives an idea of alignment and pressure needed I have used a little Washing up liquid as lubricant Good Luck Dave

      F30 A-pillar install

      I removed the driver’s side a-pillar in my 2013 320i to make sure the sunroof drainage tubes weren’t leaking behind them. As easy as they are to get off, what a pain to put back on. I ordered new plastic retainers because both broke. Does anyone have any pointers for getting it back on? I fought with it for an hour with no luck whatsoever.
