By the way, the cup in the picture is full of vinegar. The bloke I got the seats from was a smoker. Didn't realise till I put the seats in the car.😞 Don't know if it will work.🤞🏼

Dont the car dealers use a smoke bomb to neutralise the smell of tobacco smoke?
You might be able to buy one from them?

Replaced the Windshield washer pump , fixed the leak on the headlight washer pump , ordered new bulbs for the signal light and discovered that I only have one key for the car, the other one is for a completely different BMW and it was incorrectly given by the dealership to the person I bought the car from, 8 years ago. (I bought the car last week) He never once used the key so he had no idea it was for someone else's car.

Good for a laugh .... a very expensive laugh. $360 worth of laugh.

Well today got alloys back from city wheels Birmingham and I am very impressed with the quality and for £25 a wheel it's an absolute bargain the finish is fantastic and turnaround was great dropped them off Friday am ready Tuesday I have had sparkle silver on the barrels and a mid grey gunmetal on the stars now just need to reassembled and fit tyres once my spacers arrive will be fitting :D I would highly recommend city wheel refurbishment std 18 £20 a wheel 108's £25 a fraction of the cost I had previously been quoted at around the £300 to £400 mark hope this helps some people out :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I presume you split them for that price?

Will they split them for a price?

Did they block off all the bolt holes or are the threads full of paint?

No you have to split yourself as for bolt holes they can mask them off at £10 a wheel or you can put the bolts back in when star removed that way stopping powder coating getting in then either clean the bolt heads off or just leave coated up to you
