E36 to E30 Interchangeability?

[davem]

i have an e36 hood on my car, it now lifts up backwards, but still fits perfectly

lol I read on the tech that the E36 trunk lid is a direct fit as well... any input on this?

[MattAvino]

Headlights too, direct swap to e30. You will then have the all popular square headlight mod.
The paint is also a direct swap.

Your E30 interior trim trashed? E36 interior trim is direct swap, perfect fitment. Its one of the most popular mods. All E36 wiring looms also fit E30 perfectly.

You're right, we forgot to mention the gas cap lid fits as well.

Everyone here is spot on. Bunch of super smart chaps that know exactly what they are talking about. No misinformation at all.

Aren't the M3 wheels 5-lug as well?

Yeah but you can put the 4 lugs of an e30 through 4 of the holes of the M3 wheel just fine. Balance wouldn't even be off either.

Not on the e21 m3
