    Your videos are brilliant and has helped me bring back the sparkle to my car I’m going to respray the gear stick but mine is a shiny silver colour, please can you point me in the right direction for the best spray to use thanks😊

      @mattfear6345 Hi Matt! Thank you so much for your comment 😀 I'm really pleased you like my videos. I would say any spray from Rust-Oleum I've never had an issue and they have lots of colours and finishes too. 👍🏻

    Heads up those tabs push to the outside. My shifter wasn't coming off so I just popped it off in place. I couldn't really see and ended up breaking one of the tabs no biggie. Mine is in worse shape. So I decided to strip it all the way down. I'm priming first with primer and shooting it with the gunmetal! I'll let you know how it turns out! Thanks for the info

    Any tips on getting the trim back on? I've gotten mine off, painted and I just can't get the two teeth at the top to seat back in place no matter how much I try and ease them to the side or push down! Thanks for the video 😊

      @BobbyFuzzy Hi there sorry for the delay. Hmmm in that case a bit of clue maybe the way to go. Sorry I couldn't be more help. Also im a great fan of your channel 👍🏻😃

    Hi BF, just wondering how the painted surface has held up over the last nine months? Are you still happy with the end result? I need to do something with my shift knob, interested in your thoughts. Cheers

    • @TheBimmerFixer
      @TheBimmerFixer  2 года назад

      Hi Peter, thanks for your question. So it's held up really well, iv had no chipping or paint coming off exposing the white plastic underneath. It has picked up one or two marks but nothing serious or very noticible. Let me know how you get on or if you have any further questions 👍🏻

      @@TheBimmerFixer Wow, I wasn’t expecting a reply that quick. Great to hear you have had good long term results. I just picked up a 2005 e60 525i last week and have been loving your e60 content. So many little changes that I can now confidently make thanks to your channel. Cheers from Victor Harbor, South Australia.

      Thats great to hear about your e60 and with that engine too, that's awesome 👌.
      Hope you enjoy doing or the little jobs and working on the e60, if at any time you have any questions just let me know Peter 👍🏻. And what a beautiful part of the world you're based too! 🇭🇲😃

    Don't spray around cats if you don't want their hair on your paint job. Spitfire shot would of been a bonus. Instead of spraying you can also use a vinyl wrap with a textured design.

    • @TheBimmerFixer
      @TheBimmerFixer  2 года назад

      Hi Arnold, absolutely agree it's the bloody neighbours cat that never comes near me unless im making a video 😂 it did it again on my last video too. Yeah the Spitfire would have been amazing to show! I did think about using vinyl but wasn't sure if it would last being on the shifter. Do you think it's tough enough and wouldn't wear off?

    • @arnolduk123
      @arnolduk123 2 года назад

      ​@@TheBimmerFixer LOL..cats like videos of them. You could spray some clear laquer on the vinyl to make it more hard wearing although the vinyl I buy is for trim panels and pretty tough stuff.

      @TheBimmerFixer  2 года назад

      @Arnold Rimmer Thats a great idea! I will definitely give that ago thanks for the tip 👍🏻
