Bollox!! I feel for you.
Hope you get done .
 
Cleaned the bird sh*t from inside my car. F@#king seagulls, bombed me just as I was parking.

Always funny when it happens to someone else. 😤
 
It's Winter down-under so the roof has come out of hiding. All snug and dry to drive around in, but it allowed me to hear a constant noise from the rear-left wheel bearing which was inaudible with the roof off. Took it to a dealer to replace as I don't have the pullers required. They did a good job, the noise has gone, but so has a sizable chunk of my bank account :cry:
 
A nice driver helped me modify my car today, can't thank them enough

Ouch ! Kind of them ! :o Is it confined to just the door ?

Not sure, I'm currently in the states. Not back for a week.
Oh man that sucks. Did they stop? Looks like door only in pics. Not that it will make you feel any better until you see for yourself.
Grrr

Following on from post a couple of days ago after kerbing 2 wheels I decided to have a go at repairing them myself. Not a perfect job but I can live with them till they need a proper refurb.

Had a productive few days. Taken wheels off and given them a good de-tar, Polish and seal. Painted callipers & hubs. Had x2 new rear tyres fitted (the National Meet killed what was left with them!). Finally headed over to see Mike at The Zed Shed to have my roof motor moved and some coding done. Hats off to Mike for climbing in there in this heat. Also had a good chat with Stu who’d traveled down from Edinbrough to see Mike to have some work done- a cracking guy and was great to meet you :thumbsup:

Top stuff Sean ! :thumbsup: Can't beat taking your wheels off and giving them a good minting. Shame about your rear tyres as a fair bit of tread left other than on the inside shoulder :(
 
My Z4 passed the MOT with tread just like that (inside shoulder wear). Plenty of usable tread left on that tyre, especially in a very dry summer.
 
Hoping my dent man will call to remove 2 annoying dings that my OCD keeps seeing. I'll post some pics when done. If he does keep to his word. Then only a wheel refurb and ilk be happy!

Gone over to the dark side - hoping the black wheels won't annoy me as much as the silver ones when covered in brake dust :roll:
