Anyone have experience installing their BW carbon delete panel? Does it fit the cutout without much force?

Asking because the panel I'm working with doesn't. Considerable gap in the rear on each side that looks to be a flaw in the mold such that the angle restricts the panel from fully seating. This is with the front and sides bolted and considerable force (40-50lbs) pushing up from under the panel. You can see it slope down from the middle point to each side with the paper for contrast.

Before I grind or cut the corner, figured I'd check on the the alternative. Starting fresh with time tested BW panel.

I got mine from s2r composites. It actually fit perfect without even gluing it down. He supplies for other companies but not sure if it's for bimmerworld. Can you return?

Hi, when you deleted the panel. Did you have coding done to eliminate CELs related to the disconnected harness?

For those curious, S2R panel (supplier for BW) was a perfect fit and a simple install. Alex was able to turn one around for me inside a week.

Sorry for the late reply, no I didn't bother with it although you can. The only error you get is on startup and it goes away so I didn't bother.

But yeah it's literally a 10.5/10 fit isn't it? Nice!
