E39 530i MSport - Some assistance

[azan23uk]

Dear All Sifus,Took delivery of the car last week and now start looking for odd bits and pieces and parts. Got a good deal on original MSport kick plate from Harbajan... wonderful chap he is. Now a few things to ask sifus here:-1. Boot toolkit - My car only has the big plier, the wheel nut wrench, small spanner (8-10) and the tow loop/nut. The triangle reflectors, screwdriver and quite a few things are missing. Apart from buying brand new (as I was told by a forummer that they are sold separately), does any sifu here can lead me to a good used original set/pieces? 2. MSport front bumper spotlight. Mine are working properly but the black plastic cover insert/plate attached to the light (passenger side) is missing. Any idea how I can get one without changing to new light? Or anyone selling their extra set / used one?3. Minor scratches on the window glasses and windscreens. How do we remove them? Anyone has ever done it so far? How & how much?Thanking all of you in advance. Please do not hesitate to call me at 012-3827078.

Hi there. Regarding the foglight trim, its not missing. It is an air inlet on that side, it supplies fresh air to cool the alternator. Not a good idea to cover it.

Azan, may I know how much you paid for her? Feels like upgrading....

RM55k bro...got loan for RM50k. Spent RM3k so far on new radiator, water pump, couple of power steering hoses and long shaft mounting/bearing. Quite a decent car, physically...

Frankly, haven't taken any photo of the car...heh heh...been so busy over the past few weeks...work and family related. Yes, original M54 B30 MSport, July 2002 manufactured in Titan Silver. Ran and cleared a VIN check on the car. Naza brought in Nov 2002. Stock standard to the bone except for AC Schnitzer Ronal Type III 17' rims. Will get a few photos this weekend to be posted here. TQ
