I've decided to get a bodyshop to sort the Baur's rot.

Guessing dealer's parts are going to be too expensive so had hoped to use Hadrian copy parts as they're supposed to be pretty good but there's 2 problems - they only only list the NS sill and there's no rear inner arches.

What make parts has anyone used to replace their sills & rear inner arches?

Cheers,

Mick

BMW sell the inner arches (real name outer wheel well) £65-70 each and the sell repair panels for sections of the sill
If I can't fix it I'll f**k it up so bad nobody can!!

I got a FACELIFT 316i and the inner rear arches went on mine right into the sills and my Dad used the outer rear arches from a PRE-FACELIFT E30 as they had the right angles needed.

Random but it worked and the arches were only £20 each!
