Tools Needed:
We start by listing all the tools you’ll need for the job, including a socket set, screwdrivers, and possibly a friend to help with the heavy lifting.
Safety Measures:
Ensure your car is parked on a flat surface and the engine is turned off. It’s also a good idea to have protective gloves and eyewear.
Removing the Existing Bonnet:
Disconnecting the Battery:
Before working on the bonnet, we disconnect the car battery to avoid any electrical issues.

With the old bonnet removed, we position the M3 bonnet in place, aligning it with the car’s body. This step might require an extra set of hands to ensure it’s done correctly.
Securing the Bonnet:
We then reattach the bolts and hinges, ensuring everything is tightened securely. Attention to alignment is critical to ensure the bonnet fits perfectly and operates smoothly.
Reconnecting Struts and Washer Jets: We reconnect the struts and washer jets, testing to make sure everything is working correctly.
