Great to get back to driving the Z, put new Ferodo discs & pads on all round before Christmas. When I had the car painted 2 years ago, the only panel untouched was the bonnet. However I recently found an absolutely mint bonnet in a local BMW breakers for £125 so fitted this during the week with help from my Dad. Gave a quick wash after.

That bonnet was a bargain Ciaran! Nice one, looks good.

Guys replaced the aerial grommet but water still getting in, is it in right?

That's does not look like the right grommet, they have a more distinct shape to them like this although there are 2 types depending on which rear quarter you have. Put the last 7 digits of your VIN in to realoem.com and you should be able to find the correct part number.

Looking at your thread it's a facelift Z3 in which case 65218411562 looks to be the right one (comparing to the VIN off my old 2001 2.2)

Thats good Gaz as I have one of each …and you can fit the correct one when I come up to have all the shut lines sorted
