I love the way those Z3 fenders look. How do they fit? Does it take any modifications? How much did you pay for them?

how do you get the side bolts out? do you need to remove the fender guard? (the piece that covers the wheel arch |

depends how flexible you are. somehow I managed to jam my arm in there and turn the bolts loose. but removing the fender guard would probably have been a lot easier

it is easier, but still a pain if your tools are limited...
make sure you keep the wheel liners(or w/e) in their original shape when lying around, if they sit bent that will kind of warp that way a bit... --------------------  |
