I have been looking for parts for my 1995 BMW 525i and there aren't very many. There are tons of parts up to 94' and then tons of parts from 96' on.... But not for 1995. Does anyone know if since the some E34's were made in 1995 if I can use E34 parts?

I am going to be really dissapointed if I can't get any custom stuff for it.

If anyone could help me out I'd be very thankful.
thanks in advance

No I have a 1995 BMW 525i. Everything i've seen says it's an E36..

I'm looking for an exhaust, ECU upgrade, and cold air intake. for starts

...lol burton, I think you are confused. We have the same car you do. Most parts that fit a 94 will fit a 95. What kind of parts are you looking for so we can point you in the right direction?

Body stuff is pretty forgiving for the E34, most stuff works except the front grill and hood (narrow /wide)

Motor stuff not so...pretty specific M20 M30 M50 Etc.

The BMW intake is pretty good, things like the K&N have shown to either return little or no improvement. What intake are you considering? BMW tuned theirs well.
