These are NLA and USDM specific since euro cars didn't have sidemarkers in the bumpers. Someone was working on 3D printing these but don't know what became of it."I'd probably take the E30 M3 in this case just because I love that little car, and how tanky that inline 6 is." - thecj
85 323i M TECH 1 S52 - ALPINEWEISS/SCHWARZE
88 M3 - LACHSSILBER/SCHWARZE
89 M3 - ALPINEWEISS II/M TECH CLOTH-ALCANTARA
91 M TECHNIC CABRIO TURBO - MACAOBLAU/M TECH CLOTH-LEATHER

Honestly. If I had to do it all over again I would just fill those holes in on the bumper. I made mine out of formable plastic. It wasn’t too hard but you’ll want to make your front and rear so they match. Let me know if you want to know the plastic and I’ll dig up the link. It was easy to just cut with a box cutter, sand a bit to round the corners and paint

^ You are going to be extremely hard pressed to find a brand new oem tech 2 rear bumper. I got lucky three years ago and found just that at a junk yard of all places in Las Vegas, complete fluke and would never hope to find another again. These rear bumpers are unicorns, that ebay link I posted might be your best bet. That or go onto the e30 zone via facebook and put a wanted ad there. Be prepared to dig deep in pockets though, I would expect a mint rear tech 2 bumper would go for around 1200 now a days.

Yup guides are tough to find for sure. You can modify some late model ones to make work. I got tired of looking and just decided to make what I have work. Took some time and a whole lot of test fitting but lines came out straight and even. Just a thought if your not wanting to wait for the long haul.

No not a lot, just have to shave down two areas on each slider if memory serves correct. I did it to mine years back, im ocd so I fitted it a good 15 times to make sure it looked as good as it should. It can definitely be done but if you can find the sliders I would also go that route just to know you have the proper guides but honestly not 100% needed.
