Looks clean, buuttt looks like resprayed in maaco. Not the best paint job. Had an accident from front passenger side. $6.000 for 232.xxx mile e30. I wouldn't do it.

Agreed, the paint looks a bit rough for the price and the miles are a bit high. Will have to keep looking.

One little suggestion that you won't hear from everyone. when looking over craiglist don't only search for e30. Also search for 325i, that way you can find owners who know nothing about e30 and market value for these cars. For example old lady won't list her car as e30 for sale. I bought mine using that trick. It was a nice deal.

That is a very good tip, i actually just bought my 325ix for only 400 searching the same way. While it does need some work at only 400 i have a decent budget for the rest of the car. search a little more and im sure youll find something at a better price

Then what about this one?

Looks like a better deal no? Pricing reasonable?

[Kershaw]

That looks like a solid deal if it passes a jack test.

Looks pretty good. On another note anyone have a carfax or auto check account they can use to look up a VIN??? ;)

[e30fix]

Got it... now help me!

Got the red one from Maine. NOW HELP ME! Can the fenders be replaced using any E30 fenders, or do I need specific IX fenders so that the fender flare can be clipped in?

You can buy any fenders and then drill holes in them, buy inserts and pop them in.

Any fenders....

Coupe or sedan fenders. Basically any e30 fenders should work right? Where do I get the inserts / clips?

[nando]

There's no such thing as coupe or sedan fenders - all E30s are sedans, the fenders are the same.

The only significant differences are M3, cabrio, and early/late.

You can get them at the dealer. I used south atlanta bmw or something like that because they have a website and the dealers near me overcharge by 300%.
