    How much should a used front and rear plastic bumper go for?

    Doesn't include either valence. Just the plastic bolt on bumper part with the turn signals. It includes the hardware for the bumpers themselves. Is 200 per fair or too expensive?

    it is what you're willing to pay...... or what the owner is willing to let go.....find one in a junkyard and its $30-40 start there

      Pricey. I'd consider 100 a bumper fair, given excellent paint and included trims. I base this around what I've paid or sold for in the past.
      No antenna? I sell plugs!

        Good luck finding one in a junkyard that's worth buying, much less finding one at all these days.


        Opie: I'd pay more of a premium if they were in great shape and a color match to the car I was putting them on.

          I have been checking junkyards for the past 6 months or so. E30s aren't common enough for that to pay off short term (at least on the east coast) Everyone one I've seen (2) has been pre 85 as well. E39s and e46s out the ass though.

          Thanks for explaining how value works... I was more interested in seeing input from people who have bought or sold some over the past few years, or just
          Those who have more e30 experience than I do.

              I sold a set, front, and rear with hardware and no valence, shipped, for $250. (Shipping was $120+)

                200 bucks for a good pair of plastic bumpers is a hell of a good deal. I sell them for 400/pr plus shipping. They have no trouble flying out the door at that price.

                      I paid $250 for matching color front and rears, including all hardware and lights. 8.5 out of 10 condition after 25 years still amazes me. Good luck.

                        Sold my set seven years ago for $200, only way to get them for that price now is to buy the whole parts car.

                          250-300 for both with all accessories etc in good shape, matching color would be a good price but it would be better if you had the front valence/fog lights

                            bumpers

                            Why are you selling a pair and who needs a pair? Selling them one at a time for someone who only needs one which is far more common will fetch $250 a throw easy.

                              why would someone only need one at a time? I haven't heard of anyone only wanting to do a bumper swap on half their car...
