Ugh, I’ve been there! Keeping it pristine is so important for the final look.
For DIY, using the right sealant is key. Not all adhesives are compatible with windshields, especially on a high-tech car like the i8.
Great advice! Which specific sealant did you end up using? I’m gathering options here.

The list of tools can get long. You’d need a scraper, suction cups, and a lot of patience! Speaking of patience, just remember… this isn’t a race.
Exactly! Rushing could lead to mistakes. It’s better to take your time and ensure a perfect fit.
I’m curious, has anyone had issues with their insurance not covering a DIY replacement? That could alter the decision!
I had a contentious situation with my insurance after my DIY attempt. They refused coverage for the repair later! Definitely check your policy.
Remember, it’s a BMW i8! You don’t want to compromise on quality. Sometimes a professional installation is worth every penny.
Yeah, I’d rather enjoy the ride than worry about leaks and misalignment!
