Simple question (euro bumpers)

[Jim Lepage]

I'd like to know the height of an euro bumper.



Thanks !!

Just measured the bumper sitting in my basement. It measures 4-7/16" in that spot.

What do you need the dimension for?

Just curious

Fitting front euro bumper is a piece of cake on any E30 with the right valence but the rear bumper is an other thing. I wanted to know the gap to fill after an euro bumpers conversion on a late E30.

the bumpers arent going to be long enough.

Convertible bumpers are the way to go. I think only the end pieces connecting to the arches are different.

English is a weird language.
Just noticed you used "an" before euro considering its a word starting with a vowel, though we say "a euro".. I wonder what's the rule on that.

Wonder how it's going to look. If I'm not mistaken you need to drill your own holes when mounting the rear euro bumper so precision is key! Will you be filling in/adding to the gap?
Interested to see how it turns out.

Thank you for the english tip. You don't want to know all the french special rules. :)

It's only on a wish list but I would love chrome bumpers on my car. Yes if I do it I'm gonna fill the gap. It's supposed to be about 1'', maybe a little less.
