I hesitated to purchase the Norev E46 M3 due to the inaccuracies of the headlight especially the indicator lense. Ended up purchasing Ottomobile E46 M3 convertible, then decided to purchase yellow version as it looked too good to miss, Norev errors forgiven.
I get what you mean… with collecting these 1:18’s at some point we need to decide what is our tolerance level with inaccuracies / imperfections. But I’m quite happy with the Norev. That being said, I also have the Otto E46 Cabrio. I need to review that too!
I took the car apart and pushed the side grilles from the inside. The front grilles can be pushed from behind the good. Then I used Tamiya spray paint to paint the grilles.

I usually like Norev's efforts considering what they cost but this doesn't feel twice as good as the Solido effort. Would you agree?
Not twice as good, no
How did you paint the grills please?
