[QUOTE="plutoII, post: 36044, member: 14411"] This white, genuine E36 M3 belongs to a forumer here, and was brought to us for changing its colour from white to the classic Techno Violet. [IMG]http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/yy120/JKLow123/IMG_9428_zps1b25c711.jpg[/IMG]The interior was still in great shape although the seats (previously re-wrapped) needed to look much better. It was decided to re-wrap all seats, front door panels, rectify rear side panels etc. Hence, these items were removed to be done by the interior specialist before we started work on the exterior, so that both tasks can be executed in parallel. Very common for deep bucket seats to look like this....the bolster's foam had collapsed, and the Alcantara-like material has experienced lost of wear and tear. Common.
