    NON BMW OEM lips that work on the E30

    My car was just towed and in the process they managed to rip off my IS lip and loose it.

    Which led me to thinking... what other front lips work on E30's that weren't made for them?

    Post pics.

    I'll post the only one I know of that people run, Volvo:





    Not sure what models it came on though. Not really a fan of it myself.

    I've heard one of the VW 'duck bill' style lips works. Anyone know?

        That duckbill lip looks kind of cool actually, or maybe it's in comparison to how unbelievably shitty the volvo lip looks...

          I like the volvo lip. I have heard of a mark1 (or was it markII) GTi lip working as well. I think it was one of the two piece ones.

            That duckbill looks like ass.

            I have seen one Volvo lip in person and he did it right.

                if you do the MKII lip you need to get the GTI one. it is 2 piece and has brake duck in it (they are not open though) the regular one (GL) is pretty much the same as an "i" lip

                      No, parked it on Friday and went to get it Sunday... apparently there was some festival Saturday.

                      I thought it was stolen at first because it was parked legally, and there was a pile of glass where she used to be.

                      $230 in towing and ticket fees and a missing lip isn't exactly relief though.

                              Looks like you have to chop the ends to fit the more shallow e30 bumper.
