    87 front valence needed...

    I need an 1987 front valance, or one that looks cool and can fit on my car. I was hoping to put the m3 one on there... but i don't know if its plug and play. If any one has a new valance on there 87 325i please let me know... i don't have one and need to put on one.

    If you have any recomendations for ones that will fit please post them so i can pick one of them up. My car is an 04/87 1987 325i, not the later 87s.
    My e30's older than I am... but that doesn't matter, it still has a lot of spunk. And that's all that really counts. spunk.

          that's from an '87 325is, and yes it will fit (you will need mounting hardware), it's designed for your E30 generation (early body style).

          you could also convert the front valance to the newer style (88+) with plastic bumpers, but the rear bumpers are not a direct fit.

                  From an 87 325es... made for diving board aluminum bumper cars

                  It has no cracks or cracked off peices, I sanded it, primed it, and repaired all the mounting hardware. Its as close as to new as you can find for this piece.The fogs are kind of crappy as they are old and pitted and luck working bulbs but the monting hardware for them is perfect and you could easily get new lenses or swap your current ones in there. also the whole piece has a sort of a warp (barley noticable) to it from how it had been sitting for the past 7 years, but this is not at all uncorrectable when it is mounted it straighten itself right out. The backside is not ment to be primed so thats why it looks a bit junkie, it can be primed upon request.







                  I dont know what to ask for it but from ebay trends I've seen peices in worse condition go for +$140 im hoping to get atleast $170 to fund my new projects.

                      yo man u dont even need the actualy mountaing hardware. i did mine with my dad and we had 2 sheet metal screws on the outsides and we ran one bolt right thru the diving board. it holds awsome and it was easy. i got my airdam for 60 bucks at the local reckers. it took like 45 mins n thats only due to it was in the dark

                          Can we do $150 for the front valence, and where could i meet you to pick that up?

                          Thanks.

                                  The problem is shipping... tell me what that would cost? if it's low we can work on the actual price... i live in florida, 33414 is the area code.
