Yes
It was free
Nothing in this world is free, especially anything to do with Alpina
I think £300 mark

You can order new ones from Alpina,
I have already ordered one for a 1990 Alpina
How much did it cost? Free?

Re: Production Plate

I know! How stupid! I actually soaked it in vinegar and baking soda!! Seriously though, you might be able to convince ALPINA to produce a new one for you but I presume that they will want proof of ownership and the old one back. I'll give it a try. Thanks! I also just thought about the shops that ma...

B3 3.3 E46 Coupe Deco kit

Unfortunately I bought the wrong kit. Didn’t know it was for the pre-facelift coupes.

The kit includes decals for all sides - left, right, front spoiler and rear boot.

If anyone wants to buy it, please let me know.

Shipping from Abu Dhabi, UAE.

Production Plate

Hey guys

My production plate has faded and decided (or unknowingly) to strip off the paint.
Any advice to revive this?
Cheers

Re: Onboard monitor - OEM?

Thanks all for you inputs!! I'm heading to the Android unit route. :D In terms of the originality issue - I'd just stick with the Alpina essentials i.e. engine, tranny, etc. That being said, I just got the trifecta lights the other day and popped out a code 211 and some more pointing to the VANOS an...

Re: Onboard monitor - OEM?

Give Baris at http://www.carphonics.co.uk/default.htm a call. He sorted my complete setup for a few hundred pounds. Now even the digital TV tuner works. Thanks, Rave. I'll check with them. ed to match BMW look/feel/buttons etc so most people think that it's OEM from a distance. Charles, I'm looking...

Onboard monitor - OEM?

The OBM on my B3S has died. Won’t power up anymore.

Used OEM replacement or brand new android unit?

I would easily choose the latter on an ordinary E46 but confused if I’d do it on the Alpina.

Re: ZF 5 HP 19 torque converter.

Quick potted history of the biggies: Fully rebuilt the engine at 180k (probably not necessary but marked my decision to switch my custom to an expert Indie due to poor decisions from a main dealer) Gearbox refurbished at 190k (due to age) and 255k (due to cracked drum) Various HG changes every 80 -...
