Please help me .. a small favor...

Got a sweet deal on an MTech III rear bumper for my wife's E46 325Ci C, even painted Alpine white to match, I had Tommy G from JMK lined up to help, and he and JMK have parted ways.

So I am back to BEGGING for a hand to help me install it. From what I can read, it's about an hour of work considering I have a compressor, air tools, lifts. jacks stands, etc. PS. If you need to do a little work on your ride and want to use my tools, have at it...I'll even help.

There are some brackets that are required thought that I no NOTHING about, so I need some help with what to order, and of course being 54, a little upper body strength.

I can include my world class lasagna or baked ziti, sausage and peppers, salads, cheesecake, coffee, everything but alcohol (married to a legal officer so no booze gets consumed unless you plan to sleep over).
Not looking for a "free be", just a gentle helping hand.

Gotta be someone here who wants to lend a helping hand?
No response at all from the E46 Fanatics

Thank you in advance!!!!!

Man, if I was closer I'd help out just for some of that food!

Good luck, hope you get a helping hand or two. Sounds like a good NJ mini-meet opportunity.

10 hours?!?! How many stops did you make??

It's 625 miles from Charlotte to Metuchen, which equates to a 6 1/2 hour caravan lead by Juanito!

you mean mtech II bumper? I have literally installed these bumper including my own on numerous E46 cars all by myself. And let me tell you, the first time i did it, my body was all soar.

Yes, you will need new set of brackets to install it. Actually my DIY is around e46fanatics.com website. I havea pdf instruction on how to do it if you wish, just PM me. But since you are far far away, all i can do is provide you with documentation. But to tell you, it's not that hard.

Wait!

Where's the post by the guy who corrected my model typo, asked if I was sure that the coupe bumper fit on the vert, recommended I got to Tischler and then seemed willing to lend me a hand..?

Did he get abducted by cow aliens (Michelle you know they are out there)..???


Please come back !!!

HELP !!! I'll even have a small part-tay for the locals if I can get a lil help. Patron cleverly concealed... L's mini-canollis....and for the non-EYE-talians, hot dogs and burgers (frozen white castles of course).

You can use my hose and buckets ooooooooo to wash off the winter salt.

Cmon...(whiny voice intended)
