Where did you cut the e36 bumper at? And where did you align it to rivet? I might try to do this and get away with self taping screws hidden

You'll be able to tell Where to cut it when yoi have the e36 bunper infront of you. And for the aligning its up to you how high or low you'd like it.

So I have everything cut and although I have other priorities at the moment I decided to see how it'd look just holding it on the car, and i realized that its too big. Did you trim anything else? And also I'm guessing you mounted it under the tow hook?

No the top was all I cut. I got it off a sedan if that makes any difference. It seemed like it was too big but I started to secure it and it fit without bends or extra hanging out. And I cut the tow hook.

Oh ok, good to know. But damn. Looks like I'm just going to have to cut a hole in it for the tow hook because after cutting my front hooks I don't want to cut my last one haha. Thanks!

So I have a late 86 sedan, with the US diving boards. From reading it seems like the small international bumpers would be my best bet.

Where would be the best place to source these?

Ecs tuning sells them
