after the touring's untimely demise a couple of months ago ive been on the look out for something new and couldnt resist when i came across this even if it was a couple of hundred miles away big thanks to BeetleGav for the lift down
anyway couple of phone pics from when i got it home will take some better ones when i give it a really good clean. some plans in the pipeline if i can clear it with the mrs like the bbs from the touring and a few other things. as i really like the look of these from the factory. definatly new number plates as the ones on it have seen better days

We thought the same when we went to get it, was a nice surprise because they weren't spec'd on the add and they didn't show on the pictures either
They're better than my z4 ones too

after waiting for the boots to come from bmw got round to changing the problem upper boot and did, whist we was at it we decided to give the engine bay a bit of a clean as i don't know where it had been but the bay was filthy luckily. I took a before shot as i couldnt belive the difference looks a damn sight better
offending pipe can see the amount of crap just on that
before and after pics the difference is crazy
