Hi Mat

Mat I have recently bought your M6 Gran Coupe in the Atlantis Blue.
Could you let me know whether it has been involved in any front end collisions? as the wings/bonnet/front bumper gap alignment seems to be all over the place.

Hello

Thanks for the message.

It has not been in an accident whilst with me. The panels were fine when I had it.

Thanks

Mat

Thanks Matt for the information.

I presume then that you removed the front lip spoiler, did you also remove the bumper assembly to be able to insert the black grills and then put them back when you sold the vehicle on?

All that the vehicle has left of the carbon additions is then Rear Spoiler & Diffuser.

Sorry to be nosy, but I am just trying to get some idea of what happened to the vehicle and when.

Neil.

Not to chime in, but the gaps on the front can be adjusted on the front bumper. When you remove the grilles, the method is to pull the front fascia back (which is scary). However on re- securing, you need to make sure everything lines up as the holes are larger than the screws, so if you just screw it in - the gaps can be off. It took me a time or 2 to get it just right.

Additionally, the screws look like they are in straight since they have a wide head, but underneath the alignment could be off. Have you removed the screws to check?
