    a few local yard finds.. Mtech 1 rear and supereta motor. Worth??

    i found a somewhat local supereta with 167k on the clock. motor is complete, but the body isnt really wrecked either..
    worth pulling motor full or just pistons?

    the real find though is a rear euro bumper with the mtech1 kit on it, there is also one side skirt. the paint on the valence needs a major sanding but the chrome is in pretty decent shape..

    whats it worth and will it fit a cabrio? (late model arches...)
    if not who wants it. and what will you pay?

    also, the tech1 car had 2 sweet wheels on it, 7x15 looked like a deep dish 320 rim though.. any ideas here? worth getting the two?

    last was a pretty big looking Zender rear spoiler, paint on top was very cracked, worth anything?

    oh and a sweet set of 16 inch borbets on a 318ti.. mmm

    sorry for the long post.

    since I aint up on all the vocabulary - 1) whats a supereta? 2) are euro bumpers the metal ones since you mentioned chrome but take it the mtech1 kit is for under the bumperitself? 3) whats the zender spoiler look like?

    Trying to mod the 325is on the cheap, but there's no where to find such parts in northern WV Ohio Vallet area that I've found so far.

        Rear and side skirt price depend a lot on the shape they're in. I am looking for a left side skirt, PM me how much you want for it (if it's a left one with the wheel arch extensions). It won't fit on a vert.

        In good condition, the rear could run 300-400.

        Not sure about any of the other stuff, the wheels could be anything until you post pics. There are two kinds of Zender spoiler - a polyurethane lip and a M3-style box spoiler. Which one are you looking at?

          If you like the m20 I'd say go for it with the seta motor. I'm pretty sure you could just slap a b25 head on it and get a nice simple stroker motor. (I'm sure there is a lot more to it than that, but I believe it isn't to complicated) Throw a cam in it and get some bigger injectors, headers, maybe a FPR, and a chip and that thing could quite possibly be a fun, quick little m20.

            its sort of the m3 box style, it has an extra support or two in the middle though.

            the rear is in decent enough shape. the chrome part is in good shape, but the valence needs a good bit of sanding and painting. and im sure the bolts are all rusted.
            would this bring anywhere near 200 after its cleaned up some?
            i would like it on my cabrio, but i dont think it will fit either will it?

            sorry its the passenger side skirt.

              It will fit, but you would need to find cabrio-specific euro bumper endcaps, and I think they might be NLA. It'll bring a lot more than 200 cleaned up, bumper + valence together is a good find. Hardware sets are about 50 bucks through blunt.

              I actually brain farted, the passenger skirt is the one I need. Is it straight, or does it have extensions that go up the wheel wells?

                Also, 100 bux for the Zender on a good day. Not a lot of people like those from what I've seen.

                    the passenger side looks nice. ill see if they will throw it in for me. this car literally looks like its been crushed, only thing surviving the wreck and subsequent roll it was in is the passenger sideskirt and somehow this rear set.
                    ill go pick it up in the morning and post you all some pics and possibly let you know what i stole it for.

                    ill let the spoiler rot i guess, same with the seta.

                        Hot diggity. Anticipatory dibs on the side skirt, then.

                          the skirt can be yours if you want it. im almost positive it has the things that go up the wheel arches on the ends.

                          im sorry i didnt bring my cam home with me.
                          the borbets are the smooth 5 or 6 spoke with a 1 inch rounded lip. they all look nice but the man will probably want a fortune for them.

                            Borbet H. Not really worth much, still available new.

                              thats it, but the ones i saw have a 1 inch "deep dish" type lip on it, where the plain borbet h i found on google seem more flush..
