What have I treated myself (and/or my E92 coupe) to.....? ;)

Picked this little lot up this afternoon from a BMW dealer I did a deal with over the phone.

I'll likely be using this place more in the future as they offered me a good price and came across as a much more genuine/friendly bunch than the local place I've been using for 3 years.

Any ideas (8 boxes in total)?

Is it the mechanism for this?




I'm usually quite good at these guessing games.

No, why do they give good prices for such things?

I wanted to collect and pay cash and Glasgow wouldn't have come up on my radar as somewhere to try. I rang round 12 (I think) local-to-me dealers which were within about 3hr round trip and got a discount offer from about half but usually in the region of 5%, 10%, etc.

if you sign up to BMWForums Harry Fairbairn give you 15% off all parts and free delivery. Some stuff is 20%. Could you please PM how much the set was?

Ive been wanting some carbon leather for ages but its been a ball ache finding a decent set so would be interested to know how much the performance trim was.

Ok so I've finally gotten round to fitting it all. A few days later then planned as I needed some assistance from my tame dealer with regards to the ashtray lid and passenger door trim as one of the retaining plugs broke and fell into the door card as I removed the old trim.

Hope you like the pics:
