Grills and defuser for anyone Home Counties

R0B · 03-10-2018, 04:43 AM

Morning all

I have completed a new deal for my incoming X5. I haven't got a firm swap date yet but I expect it'll be next weekend.

They are taking in my car (god help them) which currently sports double slatted black grills, and an OEM M performance diffuser.

Just to throw it out there that if anyone in the area (Beds/Herts/Bucks) would like either of those, I'm up for a 'come and get it' deal. I don't have the original grills so would look for a swap on those, I do have the original diffuser so would be a case of someone who is capable whipping the M Perf one off, and putting the original on.

Otherwise it'll be handed in with those bits.

I'm not after making any money - just if you're a nice bloke and know how to swap em over on my driveway, then go for it. Cup of tea provided.

Ironically not sure how long I will drive my new car for - I think a driving ban is on the way after travelling very fast to see my dying dad in hospital this week. But I'll cross that bridge as and when!

Very nice of you.

Why you chopping in your car? Interested by the ‘gold help them’ comment...?

Sorry to hear about your Dad.

It's not been a 'lucky' car. Very squeaky, rattly, and had two pretty good shunts. On top of windscreens and fog light smashes etc - it's just been sub-normal. Hoping for better luck with the tank.

Sorry to hear about your father R0bbo.

I have just sent you a PM, would be interested in the diffuser if available.

Wet generous of you mate, I'm sure someone will appreciate the donor parts!

Both of us in new X5's.....I'd say God help anyone else on the road

I’d take the diffuser if tok72 doesn’t have it.

Sorry to hear about your dad, fingers crossed you’ll be fine...

Thanks boss. I finished my decorating then promptly blew the electrics!

Good to meet you too and drop me a pic when it's (cleaned) and on your motor.
