What is the pdc option?? That to paint it? Thanks 🙏
PDC is parking distance control sensors. Like on the rear bumper. I think for painting you have to inquire directly.

Removed the sticky and refinished my rear console cubby surround and cup holders. Going to remove my seat backs next to refinish the sticky plastic centers.
Excellent!

PDC is for parking sensors. If your front bumper has them that's what you want. Mine doesn't

Paint is a separate option. You'll need to contact aeuroplug directly to set that up.

I was going the same route and thought- well, I can try to refinish it and if I screw it up I can just buy another. Just use the stuff I show and it’s really easy. Hardest part is disassembly.

Tips- if you use the citristrip, get the aerosol. Don’t use the gel. Spray it on, give it 5 to 10 minutes and the coating wipes right off. Do the work in a well ventilated area. Rinse the parts, let dry. Spray the adhesion promoter, wait 10 minutes. Hit the part with 2 to 3 light coats 10 to 20 min apart. I used a heat gun on the lowest setting to preheat the parts slightly to help with adhesion and then lightly to help dry. I may experiment with a matte clear if I do it again to help prevent future scratches but given how quick and easy it is, and the materials left over, a respray would be a quick repair especially since i won’t need to strip the sticky off again.
Do you know if that method would work on this? I can't stand looking at this anymore.

Omg! From now on I'm going to use fleece gloves to close my doors! You need to stop hitting the gym man, your hands must be like sand paper. 😂 are those claw marks on the handle?

That method should work the same for your door handle.

Take the door panel off, remove the remainder of the unpeeled material and cover with 3m matte vinyl wrap.

Let us know about fitment and how well the paint matches after you install it!

I'm considering just trying to peel that stuff off.

Yes, it would work.

You can, and on the handles it might look fine. With it that shabby, you could probably use rubbing alcohol or honestly.. borrow your wife’s neutrogena makeup remover wipes, they work well on smaller pieces when the finish is already loose.

You would think that!
The M3 has been sitting, but I purchased a coolant flush kit, oil change kit, and some brake fluid for my future BBK upgrade.
Finally threw some new Future Classic front spacers on - fixed my vibration issues w/ my old Macht Shnell set..

Looks great! The FC spacers have been great for me.

Do you have a link to the front lip you have? Looking for a lip like that.

Ahh! I forgot I signed up for that. And no sooner after sending my message I got a PayPal invoice from 360Carbon. Bye bye $500!

Finally picked up a winter "beater". No more road salt hurting my baby.

Let the modding begin! 33" tires and a 2.5" lift coming soon.
