My Ride: Dec 55 535d sport, Carbon Black, Dakota Black Leather, Electric Sunroof, Media Package, Visiblity Package with Adaptive Bi-Xenons & Headlight Wash, Folding mirrors, 19" M172 wheels, Rear spoiler, Sun Protection Glass
Just arriving into Chester and into an NCP car park, it was so tight, the driver side front M172 wheels got curbed! It's only minor but looks all messy!
So so gutted. Any ideas from the uk on places where I can take my car to be fixed. Am up in Bolton, close to Manchester!
Cheers

I feel your pain - I scraped my rear door and sill a few weeks ago and could't look at it until it was fixed...
Scaped the wheels before on my old Audi and was gutted but crossed fingers not done it yet to the BMW as they are not low profile like yours, so I have more rubber protection.
Good luck with the fix and hope you get it done soon.
