well would you make somone pay half under the same circumstances? i would make her pay all. but it does help to explain before hand that you dont want her smoking in ur car. OR just do the same thing to her SLK

I hear that. I mean, I kinda figured she had to know that. SO that seems fair to me

Unless you want to take it to BMW, you don't really have it, their are some great upholsterry (Spelling?) places that you could take it to. This guy that does that kidna stuff for my dad is really great and I mean he's pretty cheap too... Might want to look into it.

Thanks anyway but she is paying, so I am taking it to BMW. Maybe she'll learn a lesson. My dad owns a body shop so he is ordering the part at a discount but I am bringing it to the stealer to have it installed.

Very true, some people just have to learn the hard way, and I personally think it was very disrespectfull of her to smoke in a borrowed car, even if it's your brother's car.

You should make her clean your car on a weekly routine for a month of or so

I would only make her pay for half. It was you who asked to borrow her car, it's not like she asked to borrow your car, and then smoked in it. She was used to smoking in her own car, and that was a priveledge that was taken away after she was nice enough to give you her car.

Pity you're not a hickabilly - then you could get her to pay in kind sister or not.

Really though, that sort of thing pisses me off, I find it disrespectful that she damaged your car, but at least she had the grace to apologise and offer to pay for it - so she can't be all that bad eh!

She is a good sister for offering. I had my dad order the part an it is only $30, thank god. I am going to look for a DIY to replace it so I don't have to bring it to BMW. I also told her that we could just split the cost b/c she was nice enough to let me use her car. My initial reaction was to have her pay for it all b/c I was so pissed, but now that I have calmed down, I am more rational.

If anyone knows of a DIY to replace the cloth piece coming down the pillar along the windshield on 2000 e46 323ci please post up a link. Thanks in advance.

When I had my internship last year at a BMW dealership I watched the tech put that piece in. It looked very simple. I can't recall exact steps so I won't attempt to write up a DIY, but I don't think you will have any problem putting it in granted you have some simple directions to follow.

Glad to hear that it was so cheap
