    Search ESM. The fitment is still going to be off some though.

            Yes. The general consensus is that if you don't want to make your own, guy the eurostop ones and be prepared to deal with eurostop quality.

                  The ones IE makes are better AND cheaper, why buy fiber glass that will shatter when you can get ABS plastic for 275?

                    There have been quite a few members state that the Eurostop ones fit better and provide more clearance.

                      Because the ie flares look like they belong on a 2002... Its all about style preference.... to each his own.

                        The eurostop/dtmwerks don't fit early cars without a good bit of bodywork flattening out the rear quarters.

                          Seriously, I've never heard of a single E30 or E36 that was able to buy DTM's fiberglass work and just bolt and go, they are anything but "direct-fit."

                          ALL have required substantial rework.

                            I wouldn't go far enough to say all cars. I wanted to test fit mine on a later car to see if it was a direct fit a bit ago and talked with a local member. Aside from paint and rivets, they looked like direct fit stuff. And now that I did a search it looks like he ordered and fitted them...

                              I would. I've never seen their work installed without modifications/alterations, small or large. Eventually someone will get a perfect part, but the number of imperfect outweighs the perfect ones.
