Re: Pulling Rear Parcel Shelf '87 CSI, Pod Paint, etc

Hi

Has anyone changed a none rear blind parcel shelf on a post 1982 car and fitted a parcel shelf with a blind from a highline car.
Have got a good highline parcel shelf with its blind and would like to fit it.

Cheers.

E24 fitted with E60 V10

Hi This vehicle was at the NEC, classic car show last November. Close up it looks fantastic and thats saying something from me as i’m not into restomods. The quality of the work is outstanding, you could say it’s just as good if Bmw built it themselves. Check it out on youtube. IMG_2603.jpeg IMG_260...

Re: mud flaps

Hi

Don’t put mud flaps on your car, the clamps dig into the wheel arch and cause rust to start. Plus all the crap gets trapped behind them.

Good look.
