Hi all

Yesterday, whilst sitting stationary in the central London traffic a motorcyclist went into the rear offside wing of my E30 :evil: I am now the pround owner of a dent :cry: and need to get it taken out. I didn't get his number plate as it was covered in grime and he just drove off. There was nothing I could do as I was in a long line of traffic.

I am based in East London so any recommendations for a local tradesman to fix my ride will be welcome.

Cheers

Depends how bad, the dent is.
If small, then try one of the paintless dent removal outfits.
If a bit worse than that then try a scrapyard/breaker for a good second hand wing in the right colour.
Changing it is a simple bolt on job.

Hi all

It's a small one and one that those 'dent wizard' type boys can fix.

Any recommendation for a local one in East London will do.

AndyP my number is 07887 628585.

Cheers.
