I'm willing to part with my front licence plate bracket from my 2004 (haven't used one for years) but no idea if that would fit the bumper of the 2006 models, plus it's not painted. I also have a...

I test drove a 35i with the standard seats and like all other BMW standard seats, I hated them. For people who never drive it like a BMW, they won't notice the lack of side bolstering or flat thigh...
