A few years ago I bought a 1986 325ES. It was said to run, but had a bad throwout bearing. Thought I'd drive it the hour return trip home, fix it and drive the thing to death. Little did I know what was about to ensue after the tow truck dropped me off in my driveway 5 hours later.
It's been years of fun replacing pretty much every part of this car, engine, suspension, bodywork, interior, everything, but I'm moving abroad and need some funds to sponsor my living expenses as I move toward a new chapter in life.
First to go of my beloved car is the real deal, OEM M Tech 1 Kit.
The front end has all the pieces except for the brake ducts and tow hook extensions. Shipped in from the UK, I polished the bumper, replaced 90% of the hardware, purchased new lights (from the E30 M3, direct fit), and sanded/repaired any cracks or imperfections with plastic filler. The turn signals were sanded smooth in these photos. They'll arrive painted SEM trim black.
Same story with the rear end. No tow hook extension either. Just keep the plastic filler in mind, don't flex her too much, it'll flex but not like the original plastic. Apparently at some point there was a plastic repair panel installed, so that area had to be smoothed. Doesn't show externally at all. I'll be sure to ship the pieces safely. There is a small indentation at the top left side of the bumper. It's not really a dent, but it's there. The pictures, even though they're at artsy angles, show the extent of any deformation (there isn't much haha). Also the rubber has some mars that I haven't filled. These are 30 years old and were shipped from the UK to Seattle, yet they look wonderful for being original pieces.
The sideskirts were purchased with the intention to paint and install. I have what I believe is all the mounting hardware, new in plastic. They're the flared type, not the straight skirts. Looks better, more aggressive, in my opinion. No damage really exists on these, maybe a frayed mounting hole or two. Great shape.
Finally, I have the E30 Mtech 1 wing. It has some minor cracking in the foam part, I was going to fix it with some sanding and flexible filler as well. Also, 2 of the 3 fasteners holding the fiberglass insert in place are broken. Can be fixed pretty painlessly. But time has escaped me and I must pass on this wonderful kit to the next enthusiast.
The Front and Rear Bumpers/Airdams. $2600 + SHIPPED Updated 8/29
SOLDThe Flared Side Skirts.
SOLDThe Wing.
Improved photos will come by Wednesday. I'm posting what I have now, but I hope you can tell from my positive feedback(and lack of bad feedback) that I'm not trying to hustle anybody. I've shipped Mtech packages before and the buyers were more than happy with what arrived.
Also, if you need proof that I purchased these from Europe or US sellers and not from the stolen Seattle area Mtech 1 E30, I can provide that as well. Most all my pieces have been imported by myself.
Thanks for looking. Please ask me any questions you may have.
And what it can look like. (NOT MY PHOTO, if you couldn't tell hehe)
