    E30 noob here: What Body kit do I have?

    Hey guys, I just bought my first e30, a 1991 325is, a few weeks ago. What body kit package do I have on my car now? I know my bumper does not have the "is" front lip. I found a nice bumper at the junk yard and I decided to take it. 20 bucks so what bumper did I take from the junk yard?






    And heres the front bumper. It had fog lights, but I didnt keep them







    Thanks!

    the red valance is for early model e30's

    its a "is" valence

    you have a late model
    -FREEDOM- is cruisin at 80, windows down and listening to the perfect song-thinking "this is it"

    MECHANIC SMASH!!- (you all know you do it)

      none. you have is sideskirts, but that's not really a body kit.

      that front spoiler also fits on early diving board cars, not on plastic bumper cars. It's been done, but nobody really agrees if it looks good or not.

          not without a lot of hacking. your car looks clean, I'd sell the spoiler and get an is lip.

            you would need to modify a couple things.

            just get the 'is' lip

                haha body kit. You're blessed with a late model e30, which has very attractive stock lines.
                IS skirts are sorta rare, although I've been seeing a lot around my area lately.

                  I know, I just had no idea what to call it on e30s. I just got this car and before this I had an e46, and spent all my time on e46fanatics. Now that I joined r3v, Im gonna spend all my time on here and in a week or so, Ill know everything about e30s :hitler:

                      From everything I understood there was no actual 1991 325iS. I thought it was a 325i sport offered that year. Came with all of the iS options plus those sideskirts commonly referred to as "iS skirts".

                        PO had installed an early model front spoiler on my 90 325is. Here's the before and in progress change back to original front.
