    are any m3 parts interchangeable with an 85 325?

    do any of the m3 parts fit an 85 325?

    parts i need to replace on my car are the front valance, rear valance, seats, and dash.

    i need seats more than anything right now. the ones i have right now are so janky.

    so...yeah. seats?
    side panels maybe?

    thanks

    Front and rear valence won't fit as the M3 has wider fenders. Seats will bolt right it and I think the dash is the same.

    My question is, why? Why not just get non-M parts?

        at the wrecking yard, the m parts and non-m seats are the same price. so why not?

            they only have the seats at the moment i think. but they've had several m3's roll through.
            i have no idea where they get them from.

              Rear parcel shelf?

              I just wanted to play devil's advocate. Am I right though?
