    m3 body panels on a 325 cabrio

    Does anyone know if they sell new or used m3 body panels anywhere? I've searched ebay, google, this site, the faq.. I've seen a few members make beautiful cabrios with m3 panels. I apologize if this subjects been discussed before. I couldn't find it.

    Since it's my first post, here's a bit of my story. My first car was an 87 325is..bought for a whopping 800 dollars It was really nice, despite having 250,000+ on it. The handling was amazing. I fixed it up the best I could. As you could imagine, it was quite hard on a 16 year olds budget. So I sold it. Now I'm driving a sentra. No fun. Really. I swear.

    So I'm back. There's nothing that drives like an e30..and the price..ahem. I'll be going to college soon..I've come into money. It's time to buy a 325 cabrio! Drop a nice engine in it. Do the fixins. Then make it beautiful.

      Vlad bought brand new rear vert specific M3 panels for his I believe. So I am guessing they are still available from the factory...have your wallet plumped up though cause that stuff isn't cheap, probably

        Like the others have said find a wreck, and start cutting. If you are willing to get a car shipped from cali their is a junk yard that has a lot of e30's.

          I believe Vlad used Fiberglass panels bonded onto the modified e30 body... NOT E30 M3 Convertible panels.

          You can also use standard E30 M3 rear flares and weld them on.

              I used coupe steel quarters and I think VLAD did as well . Fiberglass is junk and the new OEM cabrio quarters are 1650.00 each . fint a used clip and start cutting .
