I just want to start out by saying that I do not work for Bavauto or Tubular Automotive and I am in no way affiliated with either of those two companies. I just use “Bavauto” in the title because these are the same headers that Bavauto use to sell, and they are being made by the same company that previously made them for Bavauto. People know them as Bavauto headers so that’s just what I call them.
I also want to point out that this a non-profit venture on my behalf. I choose to run this group buy for free in my spare time in order to make these quality headers more easily and more cheaply available to the BMW community. So please be patient if I don't respond to your PM's immediately, I try my best to answer them the same day they were sent but sometimes things just don't work out that way.

Tubular couldn’t find any pictures of this model. However I found these pictures online…


As with last time these prices are for uncoated headers and shipping is not included in the price. Headers can be ceramic coated for an extra fee. The price will depend on the number of sets that are being coated. If you're interested in having your headers coated assume that it will cost roughly $200.
If you're interested, please add your name to the list using the following format:
Name, Header Model, mid-section included/excluded (if applicable), coated/uncoated, # of sets (forum)
i.e. Bullet Ride, E30 325, mid-section included, coated, 1 set (R3V)
Reference material (previous group buy threads)
