Has to be the the Best e90 fender replacement video on TH-cam. Have the same color will be doing my driver side soon. By the way I like the music too, what's the song at 3:30 and the one after it at 6:05. Thanks :)
What are the 8mm silver screws that go above the wheel near the headlights to secure the front bumper called? I have lost my and can’t figure out what they are to buy new ones.
@@TimNummy Looking at your vid. The wing is sealed off and the way the door hinges close. You wouldn't be able to adjust the door bolts through the wing.
Tim, you made it look like you had done that before. BTW I hate those gutless people! The last time it happened to me was in a parking lot at a hamburger place and I think they were still there when I came out because they kept staring at me as I got in the car. The damage was on the passenger side so I didn't even see it until I got out of the car at home.
Hey Tim - where did you buy your fender? Was it a replica or OEM from a junkyard? Also did you paint it yourself or was it prepainted? I have a small cosmetic crack but I've been warned against buying aftermarket or painting myself btw mine is e92 so it's plastic not metal like in the e90s
Hey! I just found a local BMW salvage place that happened to have the same fender int he same color for a pretty good price. I've painted cars before and painting it yourself tends to be a lot of work and more expensive than you'd think... that's why I just bought the already painted fender as it was cheaper than painting a new one.
Nothing special - any basic metric socket set and screw driver set should give you everything you need. Also obviously, a jack, jack stands, lug wrench, etc. etc.
When I was a kid, you left a note even for the slightest bump that did no noticeable damage. Of course now you'd buy a paint job for someone for a door ding but this was ridiculous. Character is what you do when no one is looking. Obviously they had none. I'll bet they even thought a BMW driver deserves it. Sad. Great hair, BTW!
I saw a chick door ding someone and bolt away... I jotted down Her licplate # and put a note with my phone number so the guy could get his once perfect paint job fixed... Lucky for me, I was watching this because the guy who hit me DID come find me and exchanged insurance info
Once on a very stormy night, I backed into a car parked in total darkness... a black car. I left a note and a year later that SOB called up and claimed... wtf. Who knows what he did to the side of his car that was dinged after one year. Good lord... some people.
First probably one of worst how to on headlight tint. Second you need to be very careful when using alcohol on headlight plastic as some OEM and Aftermarket plastics to not like alcohol they like being sober! Lol some the plastic will break down faster, Crack very soon after using, discolor, best to avoid using alcohol!! Goof off is what he and would use that before alcohol it gets rid of anything best stuff around for adhesive removal. But whatever you use wash with mild soap and rinse with water. As for tint job look up Headlight Armor videos their very informative. As with any how to videos I would stay away as much as possible from videos made in the driveway or side of a trailer park try and find ones made out of a shop place of bussiness sometimes dont have a choice but those videos they will tell you the right tools for job, material, and safety precautions. Not a guy putting on headlight tint with his hand Lmfao. You would use a squeegee
Best e90 fender video for sure... Thanks for the knowledge.
this is tutorial art, new sub from norway!
Thank you for posting this how to and providing the fresh jams to listen to.
4:44 running your hand along that crease as if it's aligned when it clearly looks off lol
good thing you found a new sponsor for your videos lol

Thank you for the video, very helpful. Same thing happened to my car, and I too need to replace the fender.

Very useful. Does it have to be jacked up for this or was that just for access to the fender well?
Thanks.. Just access
What did you do at 1:27 ? I have problem with it :(
Thanks. Getting ready to do this on my 2009 328i. Someone dented in parking lot and left.
This is litterally why I’m replacing my fender lol
I put a replacement door on my car. Can the door bolts be adjusted through the wing to align the door once the mud guard is removed?
I would expect that they could be reached but I'm not 100% sure.

Did u reuse the rivets?

Haha thanks, not on this part of this car at least. I'm sorry that happened to you too... it's SO irritating.
This was a big help. Thanks
Excellent video
Tools used for the replacement of the fender?
What if the door can’t open due to the fender?
Where did you source the fender from pre-painted?
Hey! I found it from a local BMW parts place that takes wrecked BMW's and parts them out.

Could I get the details on what tools you used or maybe just what set you have?

WHERE DO YOU GET AN ALL READY PAINTED FENDER?
ebay, junk yard, craigslist, etc. etc. - they aren't hard to find
oh tim, you should wipe down the headlight with alcohol to remove the old glue, so the new tint can stick better :xv

Cool vid kind fast tho could you list the sockets you used tho ?
Ah. This was a while ago but I think it was just a 10mm all around
The bumper is a easy fix fill in, buff, repaint & wax
nice useful vid, thanks
Thanks for watching!
same thing as you, someone reversed into the bm, wing dead an bumper damaged/clips broken (bumper side)
What size sockets did you need? And we're there any torques screws?
Same thing happened to both of my fenders. Even with cameras directly on the car police didn’t find the culprits.
Fantastic
My da sister just backed into my dad's 11 E90 so I will be doing this fix in the coming weeks.
