FS: e30 white plastic euro bumpers

[grey ghost]

I have a line on a very nice set of e30 white plastic euro bumpers.
I saw them today and didn't think to take pictures. My stupid mistake.
I plan on picking them up tomorrow.

I'm not getting these at a steal, but I'm not trying to make a killing either.

I was hoping to receive multiple shipments from the UK but my supplier has opened a garage and has no time to source parts for me.

So this is a rare find. I don't even know what to ask for them.
Pictures will be up tomorrow evening if they haven't been sold by the time I get there.

If there are any takers, drop me a PM.

Ben Carufel's e30 has the exact bumpers and valance. Thanks for posting Ben...

White late model bumpers with euro trim? Not very rare.

OK, so should I leave them were they are? Or should I pull them and sit on them until they are rare?

[Farbin Kaiber]

You will be sitting until there are no more e30's in junkyards. They are not rare, nor is the black trim, you can buy it at the dealer.

Word, buy them all day for 160 shipped.

I have the complete front and rear bumpers, including the plastic mounting pieces that go on the fenders and quarter panels.
One of the lenses in the front bumpers is cracked but I believe I have a replacement at home.

I was going to pull the valance but it got late. I may go back tomorow and pull it.
One of the fogs is cracked but it is otherwise in good shape.
If you want these and need the mounting shocks for the rear, let me know, I'll go get them.

If there is any interest, drop me pm.

$325 shipped via fed ex ground.

Did you look around at similar plastic bumpers to come up with your price?

Are you going to be the thorn in my side.....
I saw a lesser set go for $300 plus shipping, which is more than I'm asking. I've also noticed that many FS post don't list a price.
So I'm either too low or you just feel like sticking it to me at the moment.
If they don't sell thats cool. I have plenty of storage in my garage. In fifteen years I'll get what I want.;)

If you are going to kick me in the shins, please use the pm mode.

I just noticed that you have 14K post. That explains everything..:up:

I would probably by the black trim from you because mine is cracked in some places. But I doubt you want to pry that off and sell it

In reading a post from another board, I have discovered that I have are US spec plastic bumpers, simply because they have the side markers, I think.
I thought that the big metal ones with the plastic end covers represented US spec while these and the smaller metal ones that I had for sale ealier this year represented euro's.
My mistake.

Do your self a favor and pull the shocks and mounting hardware for the front and rear bumpers as well as the valance if it is perfectly streight. You should have pulled the bumpers with the shocks, but you live and you learn. The bumpers are going to be pretty worthless without the mounting shocks and hardware as most people are buying them to replace their diving boards and if it is an accident car, the shocks are probably compressed which means they will need replacement.

On another note, you will make pleanty of these noob mistakes. People will give you shit for it. You will either learn from it or cry and fall off the face of the plannet. That's just life on a forum filled with HS students. Good news is, you can learn from it if you listen up and do your research, and next set of bumpers you come accross will go alot easier. Good luck.

Cheers,

Brian

2 things-

1. Now that you know what you have, PM me a price. I won't pay anything like your original asking price, but I am interested in the white bumpers, even without the mounts.

2. Where in NC are you located?
