Visited BMW Parts & Accessories department at Shatin
Went there to drop-off my car. there are so many M's with performances packages.
overall, the shop seem very clean & pros. Didn't know they do custom paint jobs as well. a white Mini with pink bodykit and diamond shadowline trim. |

Anyway, 10 days for installation seems quite a long time. You won't see you baby for a long time. Got a loaner? Don't know why they will take so long. If they paint the kit first I don't think it will take more than a few days.

I talk to the senior Service Advisor about the 10 day timeline, and he told me the paint job is " 3 coat paint " standard for them. so it will take longer time to completed.

But still the paint job for the kit doesn't require you car to be in the shop.

well, he told me the first step is to take apart the bumpers and doing a fitting test first.
If there are no errors on the kit, then will move to the next stage of painting. () anyway, i know they won't be driving my car around for the weekend without bumpers. |

Well, they are like this. Took my car for 3 days for the transmission malfunction fixing. They test drove my car.
But don't think they will test drive yours DY, it's only body parts installation.

Well this was stone age history. Just bring this out to iterate that BMWHK takes forever to service our cars.
