If this is open to all M3s and not just the E30, then mines had none either.

Why the question? You trying to trade yours in and the dealers said thats had an all over spray job?

mines had a door painted don't thinks had much else. Hopefully that won't be the case for much longer as saving up for a respay is looking like a good idea

Rear quarter, (taxi in Brighton)
Rear wheel arch (Bus down my road)
Rear bumper (same taxi),
Front bumper (me, ice),
and probably more.
(and 3 wheels!!!)
Looks nice now though!

Mines just slightlty showing between the passenger side rear panel and the sill under the door. You can just see it over the side skirt when the door is open.
I don't want to investigate any further as I know I'll have to deal with it!

All Original I believe.

Why else would the Diamond Schwartz be virtually bluey grey

Its not an issue to be honest. As long as it all matches of course

I've had the whole thing done, and then two days later some joker reverse parked into my front wing, and ripped my bumper off.  It's been in storage now for 4 months and needs tidying up before the sun kicks in again.  Thought I might give it a once over again but might be next summer by the time I've saved enough for that again.  Also needs a good service and the interior refurbing.  Time to set my priorities and get it ready in time for the summer sun.
