New Z3 2.2 Owner

Some people under estimate the hours involved in the restoration of a vehicle, especially on a very low budget, it seems one can pick up a bonnet/hood painted all the colours for around fifty pounds, but when it comes to Arctic Silver the price is £430 all in with kidney grill, logos and delivery. I did estimate the price could have been around the £670 mark if using independent located resources, so swings and round-a-bouts....

It's just pot luck what colours for a panel or trim item are available at the time you want it.

I recently had a pristine Artic Silver bonnet for £150.

I always have plenty of spares if you want to give me a shout. I have a lovely Artic Silver front bumper at the moment from the same car.

That's what I like, salt rubbed into the wound.... It is pot luck, I think I had Rose coloured specs on, and an opportunist, from Essex ready to possibly go into liquidation, that is the problem nowadays, knowing what business to trust, a different set of values to my day... Lesson learnt. Thanks for the offer, at the moment my front bumper is sound, however I will bear your kind offer in mind, if I should come up short on anything, early days...
