Couple Questions

[PogiMonster]

I'm currently working on mildly refurbishing my E30 and I got a few questions. Thanks in advance for help.

NEW:

How can I remove glue safely w/o damaging the paint ?


I noticed that a piece was missing from my IS rear spoiler. this is a shot of the right side of the trunk. What do I use to secure it ?







I noticed this zip tie and I believe its holding up my oil cooler. Is the broken piece the mount? Where can I get it/ what's the part #


What size are the grill front grill screws ?



When I was getting my car smogged, my mechanic told me this piece was wrongly positioned/ or the tubes were... what is this piece called and where can I get another?



Thanks again for the help! :D

Screws are 3.8 x 13 mm, sheet metal style. The last picture looks like an add-on fuel filter. The stock fuel filter is on the drivers side bottom of the car just forward of the rear wheel.

Go to realoem.com and fill out your model year info and look up part #s.

Is the broken piece in the second pic, the oil cooler mount ?

Could be the cooler mount, can you get better pics of it? For the spoiler you could use a nut and washer that will fit in the hole but if you go on realoem.com you can get the replacement plastic nut. For the glue i would try goo gone, scratchX, polish, maybe simple green?

Here, found 2 part numbers for the spoiler nut:

One is $0.53/ea other is $0.23/ea and the foam washer:

Your just missing the mount and bolt for the cooler. Very easy fix..

Come by the shop. I should have everything you need.

For the glue? 3m adhesive remover. It's for body shops. It'll do the trick.
