Looking to purchase an e90 lci bonnet. Oem is ridiculous money. Aftermarket is a third of the cost - Eurocarparts do two sorts:

1. VM bonnet. Cant find anything about this.

2. A Platinum plus bonnet - which has a lifetime guarantee, no quibble refund
and complies to PAS125 which is some sort of industry repair standard from what i can gather.

Looking to buy the platinum plus one as they offer refunds and guarantees on that one.

Anyone any experience?

Just emailed them and the rep sent me an email certificate containing amongst other things the follwoing spiel:

Good morning –

All our platinum parts are tested independently by

Tuv / Thatcham and others and are to the same tolerances

as the original manufacturer .



I will send you a copy of our platinum statement which covers

Us in respect of supplying to insurance approved bodyshops .



Hope this helps
