    M20 M power valve cover?

    Saw it on ebay last night. Guy said it was an oem piece. It was black with bmw m power stamped in it. I was thinking maybe it was on the SA e30s that didnt get the m3. Anyone ever seen it before?

    "OEM quality", NOT OEM. I saw it too and was interested as I like the idea, but the execution of it is a bit less than perfect. The letters are too thin and spaced too far apart, but otherwise it's a nice looking piece.

        Eh, it's just something other than standard is all. I wouldn't pay his premium for it.

                No, not bad, just not quite like factory as what is on the s14s.

                  The S42 valve cover is hot, but it won't fit the M42. Not like I'd fine one anyways.
                  The BMW 318 is back. With a vengeance.

                    Ah, good catch bobby, I just kinda skimmed over it and saw OEM. I just wasnt sure if there was a real one or not.

                      My car copped the normal M20 valve cover.

                        Pretty ugly, plus the fact that there is nothing ///M about an M20...

                            What's with the rash of fake valve covers? First an Alpina fake, and now this?

                              Other than if you had that valve cover it would be ///Mbarresing. :)
