yeah - good news they are delivering the headliner to my local BMW garage on Tuesday so won’t be long before they can fit it - assuming there are no complications

Hi Havy (or anyone reading this) , hope you don’t me asking you a question about my bumper. Looks like before I bought the car there was some bumper damage and I’m probably being fussy but it irritates me there is a bigger gap on the right end where it joins the bonnet (facing the the front) - you can see the lower part is pushed slightly towards the lens. It’s not as obvious from other angles but I know it’s there

Do you think a body shop could straighten by pulling it up 1cm or do you think a full replacement is the only way? I’ll ask my dealer when it goes in for the headliner fit but thought I’d get another opinion.

As the bumper is plastic I wonder it I could heat it up with my heat gun and simply move it slightly myself - see crude example?


Thanks in advance

It’s probably not a big comfort but mine looks the same. Also the left side. You can try to adjust the bumper with the screws inside.

Thanks, that’s very interesting - in fact now you mention it I have seen a similar gap on other cars too. I’ll have a look and see if I can adjust it with that screw - maybe it an adjustment. Thanks for the prompt advice. Regards

Finally got my contrasting headliner fitted

Finally got it from the USA and had it fitted by BMW and it looks great - what do you think ?

Hello, hope all is well. I am in the process of replacing my headliner and have searched everywhere with little to almost no info on this. I came accross this post and saw where the headliner has to come off from the front driver's side. The link to the TIS is no longer working. Could someone help me with this please? I removed both seats and rear bench, but still not able to angle it right. I also removed the rear view mirror and steering wheel to no avail. The center console keeps getting the way, or it seems that way at least. Will gladly send a beer donation via PayPal to the person that has this information 😀.

Update: I had to remove the center console and that created enough room to guide it through the driver's door. Still, a very tight squeeze.
