Today we will explain how to change the color of the front right and left door panel of the BMW Z4 model E86. To perform this operation, it is first necessary to remove the door panel. Using a flat tip screwdriver, we remove the panel by pressing on the clips, being careful not to damage them; we unscrew the central screw behind the door handle.

Disconnect the central connector of the panel. Place the panel on a work surface and using a spray can of the color of your choice, spray the surface and wait for the paint to dry. After completing the operation, reassemble the door panel.
