Mpameno81 Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 2012 I believe. This thing kicked my butt from 1pm to 6:30 ha. I've developed a whole new hatred for BMW's after this. Here's the finished product, Carbon 38% on 2 fronts & Carbon 18% on rears: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

micro-edge Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 personally i think all bmws are a cakewalk. I agree with the exception of the M3 backglass, its super easy to shrink but everyone that i've done has gave me hell when i install it on the glass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mpameno81 Posted September 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 personally I think all bmws are a cakewalk. door panel top pop back and seals come right out...cake. I was feeling the same way till this one came by! ha See this is where my troubles pretty much started. I spent an hour & couldn't figure out to get a single panel off. I couldn't find one screw or anything? I took off the trim, popped the bottom clips out & it still wouldn't budge. I tried to peel the tops back to grab the seals but there was this big aluminium looking like rail that kinda wierded me out as for peeling it back (this one had the roll up screens that are part of the panel). easy car. why did it take you so long? Well after all that, I ended up having to tuck, & I hardly ever tuck, caause I'm not that great at it (apparently). In doing so I messed up on 3 windows. Just when you think your becoming pretty decent, ya get knocked way back down ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TintJunkie Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 I had problems with the front doors on that year model. I tucked the gaskets as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTS Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 Top of those panels don't just 'pop back' like previous versions.... The rears tuck fairly easy BG and 1/4 window =cake Once you figure out the panels on the front doors and snatch out the rails the fronts are pretty easy as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
