Jon,

As for the headlight wipers, yes, I would need the whole setup with motors as well. Also pm'd you about a valance and bumpers.

Boys if you think the Euro is bad good luck with the British Pound. 8) I see loyaties, here and where they stand.

I dont think anyone is going against you Greg. Its just there is more of a need for these parts than anyone knows. The more stuff the better. Plus I was looking for the wipers which you said were uncommon in Germany, I was hoping maybe they were more common in the UK. Even if I had to take it in the ass on shipping.

Greg,
Maybe this quote from Ryan regarding Jon trying to find someone/place to ship crates of european parts to could be of some use:

Maybe Greg, he is already bringing in european parts. Maybe you and he could partner and ramp it up. There cant be a big enough flow of eurospec parts into the US for these cars. The aftermarket here sucks.

Joking around gents. i hope he can find some rear bumpers as I would take a couple of sets myself. But joking aside the Pound Suck's Ass, it is so strong against the dollar right now it's silly.

I just can't devote that much time to doing this some days. I landed this morning at 6am and the yards don't open to 10 am so I went home. I did get some things though.

I even did so VW rumaging.

You find a cluster? :D

What about rear fogs for pre 88 cars?

Ohh, good one. I just need the holders and switch since my lenses have the openings.

how much effort and money would it cost to purchase a full set of euro bumpers, all the bumper accesories (whatevers needed to fit them). and a FULL mtech 1 kit, including fog lights and attachment brackets and stuff.

i dont care if its from europe or bav or wherever but im interested in knowing what id be getting myself into if i were gona go this route. i could do the installation work myslef but how much would it cost to color match and paint the kit before it was installed?

p.s. this is all for an 87 325is

Well... you can buy just the bumpers from BavAuto for $800 (or so I've heard). But you can get them for MUCH less used... probably 1/4 that (plus shipping).

$50-$150 for the mtech1 front airdam, depending on condition of course. I'm assuming that you could multiply that range by three to get a figure for the entire kit. Then add a little more on for the wing. Add shipping to the whole equation again.

AFAIK, the Mtech1 kit is NLA from BMW-AG.

Chris says that the Mtec kits were still around on his side of the world.

Nope. Planning on putting them on my daily driver. Shouldn't get hassled with them around here.
