Seeking expert advice on the car's salvageability, Armstrong embarked on a mission to restore his beloved M3 to its former glory. With the help of CCTV footage and a recreation of the crash, the extent of the damage became apparent, necessitating the replacement of front wings, bumper, and headlights.
Undeterred by the challenges ahead, Armstrong dove headfirst into the restoration process, meticulously dismantling the damaged components and meticulously sourcing replacement parts. From the hinges to the pedestrian protection system, no stone was left unturned in the quest to bring the M3 back to life. With a salvaged rad pack and new oil lines in place, Armstrong tackled the daunting task of reviving the car's headlights, a feat that seemed impossible but ultimately proved successful.
