    People in the UK!! I need some info

    So I am going to the UK for all of next week, Guildford, Surrey to be exact, and I want to scrounge me some euro E28 headlights/grill parts. CL and Ebay have been useless thus far, are there any good scrapyards?

      What I should have said was "Are there scrapyards and where are they and do they have BMWs in them?"

      I need names/locations of specific scrapyards. Google maps had nothing that looked like a scrapyard.

        They're called breakers or dismantlers in the UK.

        The 2 second google search revealed at least this place.

          go to Barnes + Noble or some big bookstore/newsstand and pick up a copy of a British classic car mag, or BMW mag- they're usually chock full of ads and they'll probably have something for you.

            Thanks for the links! Looks like there are no E28s or E30s... :(

              There aren't any e28's left in the UK, they have all been scrapped.

              Try Linwar http://www.linwar.com/ they have tons of old stuff, it will be more expensive than the average but won't be trash. They are based in Southport but if you have a address/ hotel whatever you'll be able to get it shipped down to you for next to nothing.
