I Have A New Front Fascia And Need To Move My Bumpers In. I Don't Want To Drill The Shocks And Push Them In. I Will Probably Have To Try This Myself, But Thought Maybe Someone Else Had Already. I Have The Facelift Shocks, And Would Like To Use My Aluminum Bumpers If I Can.

different set up, the 89 and up cars have fiberglass reinforcement that's ribbed on the back side

I'll Be Looking For Some Newer Bumpers If You Know Anyone. Thanks For The Super Fast Response!

yes the rondel is silver, looks cool when all of the paint is gone and it's shiney

That's How My Rear Emblem Is, The Front Is Only Lacking The White. I'm Waiting For The Rest To Disappear. I Love The Basket-weaves!!! My E30 Is Schwarz Black, My First Black Vehicle, And I've Found It Easier To Ignore Washing It Than To Even Try. Mother Nature Keeps A Close Eye On Me, Striking The Area With Terrible Weather Of Some Sort Everytime I Get Out The Hose.

Is That A Real Bmw Fire Extinguisher? I've Never Seen One, Must Be Rare. (very Smart Touch) I Know Of More Than One Incident Where Someone Trusted Their Own Work, Only To Start On Fire A Couple Miles Down The Road Without The Convenience Of A Small Fire Extinguisher. (my Brother Is One Of These, No Offense A.j.) When I Get Around To It, I'll Have To Shoot Some Photos Of My Own To Share. Thanks For The Pics!

I Am Sad To Report The Removal Of My Broken And Deteriorated Sport Seats, (replaced With Cheap Recaro Knock-offs That Really Don't Sport Any Of The Recaro Sophistication). If I Had Only Known Before Hand, I May Have Taken The Time To Tear Them Down, Repair Frame Damage, And Have Them Recovered. Instead I Have Mounted A Pair Of Small Extinguishers In An Unfortunately Obvious Location On The Kick Panels. The Good News Is, I Stole Them Out Of My E21,(poor Little Beautiful Car, Sold To A Teenage Racecar Driver Wannabe Who Knows Nothing At All About What He Owns), As It Was The Only Thing I Could Use In My E30 And The Price Was Right! I Will, However, Keep Handy That Part Number Because I Know A Fellow That Still Has His Sport Seats. Thanks!
