M5 Folding Mirror and Fender Grill Pre-fitted

The M5 Folding Side Mirrors and the M5 Fender Grill are officially installed prior for it going to the paint shop to complete the conversion. I also had to change the bonnet release cables as the original ones were no longer doing it's job. Opening the bonnet before this was such a b*tch and the old cable were so perished beyond repair.





The M5 grill and side mirrors were pre-installed in advance to ensure it fits and works before it goes to paint. I was very happy with the installation and the finish of their work. So it fits - Check.


However for some reason, the memory function of the mirrors were not fully functional. It folds perfectly but my car comes with memory seat also and the mirror adjustment should also be able to be saved together with it. Bummer!

The seller assured me it's an easy fix which he ensured will be corrected and that it can be done when the conversion is complete. I was rushing to get all the bodykit and car to the paint shop before it closed tonight that I didn't have this to get it corrected there and then. I'll have to bring it back to them after my other exterior mods are complete.

I'll post up more pics of the M5 Fender Grill and Folding Mirror in action when I get the time. For now... here's a preview from how it works. Lansee factor +1.
