Back in 2021 we replaced all the exterior panels on our own BMW i3 (3EVY) to create a one-off Gulf Blue example.

Many of you wondered what it takes to remove the exterior cladding, so this video serves as a complete DIY guide on how to remove the body-colour pieces, including both bumpers, the wings, and the door skins, pointing out useful things to keep in mind to avoid damaging parts in the process.

Also make sure to subscribe not to miss the reveal of the fully completed car with the Protonic Blue panels back on - which will make it the (as far as we know) only Protonic Blue i3 with the biggest 120Ah battery pack!
