Was watching this also. Tinsie bit of rust?


Good luck.

[nathyb]

Not too much rust will know more in the day light

[Ranchero]

The wings are knackered, not a major concern.

I'd have a good look at the rear arch in the morning.

[nathyb]

been out for a spin and a look back arch aint that bad thankfully

[staley_turbo]

Does look a little rusty. Have you checked inner arch? Jacking point and bulkhead. Not bad price though

[nathyb]

That's right for £610 With 11 months mot I'm not that fussed but the bulkhead ,shock tops and boot are rust free and I planning on some sort of wide arch kit for the back also a m tech kit engine is a little tappity but am I right in thinking they adjust ??

[staley_turbo]

Yes they are easy to adjust. M tech kit is smart, id leave the arches the standard width.

[Barx325i]

adjustable tappets yes, do-able on the road side with a spanner, allen key, coat hanger & a feeler guage.

[staley_turbo]

coat hanger

?

[Barx325i]

the wire type - ya

to put a tiny bit of tension on using the hole that should accept the genuine bmw tension tool

[nathyb]

Sounds easy then cheers
