DunDun,

I am looking at the white 635, driver side view, that you posted on Oct 11 in the "2012 Calendar is on" thread.

The part on the front I am referring to is just above the front air dam, and below the sheet metal. It appears to cover (or replace) the stock black plastic housing that the bumper sits into. Also, the small rectangular side light protrudes through it.

On the back there appears to be a skirt-cover for the black plastic housing that the rear bumper sits within.

I've attached a copy of your photo, with the parts circled.

...the painted bumper side covers, that come in body color as stock, on the 88/89 models, those wearing "world" bumpers :-k

So, if you want those on your 6er, either you're in for a bit of modification, or you need to buy and 88 or 89 #-o

DunDun, congrats on making the calendar 8)

Grnshrk: Thanks for the clarification, personally I also love the world bumpers (I like that they sit close to the body).

Additionally, thanks on the congrats for the calendar!

Should be a great upcoming season.

Hi Brian,

Just wanted to clarify a couple of points before the summer (if we get one over here :roll: ) so I'm ready for 2013.

You say
Ideally, it would be nice to have an image of 3200 X 2400 with a DPI of 300
My present camera does 3648 x 2736 with a little over 300 ppi (pixels per inch), this is the image resolution. DPI is the printer resolution which you can adjust when you print it out with your printer at home. I presume you are looking for image resolution of 300.

About the file sizes. A JPG from my camera at that size is about 7.5Mb so that would mean sending 2 or 3 emails. Can you do anything with RAW files? I personally like the quality but the file size is over 20Mb which makes sending them a little more difficult, possibly FTP'ing or multiple zip files.

Thanks,
Martyn
