Air vents at bottom of windscreen look shopped out.

It's the image compression, a lot of the rest of the surfaces have that "pattern" effect, too. Happens a lot with red.

does anyone know how to shave the bay before the swap itself? i need help on this.

[Farbin Kaiber]

There are a lot of threads that show how different people went about shaving their e30 bays. Just start using the search function.

[vaughnbannister]
