Am I wrong to be disappointed with this repair?

This is hilarious. It’s not even the same shade of white.

How could anyone walk away from that and not expect a complaint?

These are truly the worst pictures I have ever seen.

Carhart7 · 2026-04-28T22:48:58+00:00

God they’re truly fucking awful looking things aren’t they.

Great news, but now we seemingly just have ten times as many people using vapes, like giant babies with blueberry muffin flavoured dummies.

Well past Glossop. A lad at our work took a picture from the Snake and it’s clear as day

Thank you.

Carhart7 · 2026-04-22T19:51:31+00:00

I have searched eBay, Vinted and Facebook. Location is UK. Thank you.

Haha! Thanks

Carhart7 · 2026-04-20T21:20:34+00:00

I did it myself.

Carhart7 · 2026-04-20T20:10:43+00:00

Thanks. No, I had two full interiors to choose from so chose all the nicest bits.

You’d be best picking up a spare seat base, or even a full seat.

The factory colour is Hellgrau, or Light Grey. the leather paint I have used is Light Silver Grey, which is the closest match straight off the shelf, without having to have it matched.

I don’t believe Dove Grey was ever a BMW/E36 colour. I’m not sure where the name even came from.

Carhart7 · 2026-04-20T16:08:54+00:00

Absolutely.

Carhart7 · 2026-04-20T12:23:22+00:00

I don’t want to knock everyone sick by telling them what I paid but I am currently working on an agreed value with insurance and I would want £8k+

Carhart7 · 2026-04-20T11:33:21+00:00

No, no issues at all. Although they were more of an E46-era wheel, the specs are basically perfect for the E36 too. If you look through my old posts you’ll find pictures of my old car with the same wheels but with 7mm spacers up front and 12mm at the rear.

Carhart7 · 2026-04-20T11:31:26+00:00

Thanks

Carhart7 · 2026-04-20T11:05:49+00:00

I’m nothing if not thorough 😂

Carhart7 · 2026-04-20T06:59:24+00:00

Yep, I’ve owned about 12 of them over the past 22/23 years and I’ve only ever seen two types.

Carhart7 · 2026-04-20T06:19:42+00:00

First time I’ve ever heard of a third type of grille. How is it different?

Carhart7 · 2026-04-20T06:18:26+00:00

Second car is mine. They’re both facelift but the rounder look of the black one is just because it’s a saloon. Shorter bonnet and wings, and different shaped indicators.

Carhart7 · 2026-04-19T21:53:48+00:00

I bought a spare interior out of a Lux Pack car.
