e36 m3 bumper on e30's...

[Pedro]

heres the deal, i have a chance to pick up a 95 ///M3 front bumper for $70. I want to know just how hard it would be just to make that bumper fit on my car. I'm not in a hurry and have lots of time to caress to fit the car but i just wanted to know what kinds of troubles would i be dealing with it was even possible to fit it on.
Jordan?

[Jordan]

way too wide, huge dip in the middle, curvature is completely different, sides are wrong length, no provision for turn signals etc etc etc

way too much work to make it work.

[Pedro]

So you wouldnt do it if you had all the time and money to mess with it?

[Jordan]

Most definately not. It would be cheaper and easier to get a AV3 front bumper.

[Pedro]

sounds good :up:

[e36sport]

Buy it anyway and re sell it.


No sense in passing up the opportunity.

[Pedro]

It has a slight crack by the foglamp, think i should buy it anyways?

[C ///M]

Yes. You can sell it to someone with an E36 Non-M for atleast $150 if its in good shape. The foglight won't matter as whoever buys it can swap in their own fogs.

Yeah like jordan said, it cant fit and its not worth fitting. I think the bumper would sort of look out of place, but if you really want that new look i think reiger has an e46 m3 kit for the e30, but of course thats your choice. (reiger is ugly).

I saw an ad in either European Car or Roundel for a company that made E36 M3 look body kits for E30's. The name escapes me at the time. So somebody out there makes them if you want them.

[Ryan Stewart]

Autovogue. They make the AV3 kit that Jordan mentioned earlier.

I rather Jordan's kit over AV3...

I rather Jordan's kit over AV3...

It's not a kit. It's custom fabrication.

Ahh.. Why not he make Jordon Kit for E30. :D

[KenC]

Ahh.. Why not he make Jordon Kit for E30. :D

He'd have to sell them for thousands of dollars to turn a profit from his labor.
