Hi everyone, nice meeting u all. Hope this group is active. I've just acquired a E39 as could not resist the classic and elegant looks it has. Got a standard 520i 2001/2002 model 2 days ago. So far yesterday I manage to diy to change the whole centre console and wooden panels as mine was not looking good. Anyway after completing my diy installation, I am left with a spare front tray(the one with cig lighter), whole centre leather console without panel(black leather in mint/new condition) as well as back blower. Don't need it as mine is good. It was an extra that I had to buy as a set from the shop. They refuse to sell the wooden panels separately. Ordered front and rear cup holders as well as the square chubby box from ebay and eagerly waiting for it to arrive.
Anyway looking forward to meeting up for TT or DIY session with all seniors here to learn more about this beauty. Honestly I enjoy this more than my F30 for unknown reason. Feels like a tank on the road
