Harper 549 Report post Posted July 30, 2021 Depends what you want done. Had my RACP done with the complete topmount CMP subframe kit at @HELLBM recently and super happy, underside plates done there too but a few years ago. Might be a few shops around the place that do underside plates but Ray's guys have done a decent chunk of the M3's running around NZ and I think Sam is getting sick of doing them! Can't speak for where to go for other maintenance as I do everything else myself. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still rock solid. I think the reality is now known. If you drive an e46 M3 , the RACP will fail eventually. I'm sure you have seen all the videos from Reddish etc... Would love to see some pic of your car! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matth5 471 Report post Posted July 30, 2021 HellBM seem to be the go-to for the subframe. BMWorkshop are another good place that can do or arrange just about anything you'd need done. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
