The R3VLimited rare parts thread

[TeXJ]

looks like your post got canned "..." Mushi

I didn't see your post as a for sale post. I liked it.

[Mushi]

This isn't a for sale thread.

I wasn't advertising here to sell. I already have for sale thread. And I just wanted to add the rare part to the list I don't think there is something wrong with it? I apologize if it sounded for sale to you.

Brand spanking new black Hellas for the E34, from the last batch made by Hella.
There's like 10 sets left.

Nice, do you still have them or know where to buy? I'll ask my friend, he was searching for this

[Reichart12]

Nice, thanks for the info. I had no clue about having to cut out the fog lamps entirely. I figured it would have been like the ski pass where its perforated and you punch it out.

What Kronus said.
Most of those early model fronts was delivered without foglight holes.
Had both a Hella and a BBS at some point, you could clearly see how somebody had cut the holes themself.
A little side info, Zender produced many of the bodyparts for both Hartge and AC Schnitzer.
Many parts have a little Z along with the ACS or Hartge parts number, and that's why the sides for both Hartge, ACS and Zender are almost identical.

[kronus]

that looks real. the fog light holes don't come cut out from these when they are new, you have to cut them out. might have been cut by an idiot.

[Reichart12]

Can someone help me out with a Zender question? This valance looks to be labeled as Zender, just left of bottom center. But I thought there should be more of a connection/overhand above the fog light hole. Did Zender make slightly different versions of the early model front valance? And some photos look like the bottom vent holes are higher up than what is pictured here.

Well painted in Orientblau then.

"And resprayed in Orientblau 317."

How'd you do the respray?

[Der Ruffian]

Since I bought the 5'ers I've started to collect parts for those two as well.
Hartge H5 front (and one of my greys) for my Touring.





And resprayed in Orientblau 317.


ACS wood steering wheel and new in box S5 dead pedal for the 5'er sedan.


ACS E34 sides that I went to Germany to pick up




Hartge H5 17x8.5 ET13 that I bought a couple of years ago.

Rare ^^^

[Der Ruffian]

This is one of the parts I missed out one.
BNIB AC Schnitzer E30 early model heckblende, the only one I've ever seen for sale.







And picture from the brochure with part number.

[Der Ruffian]

Wow! Der Ruffian, how is your car progress.?

Slowly coming along.
Wheels are back from polish, I'm working on the right painter for the center, but it's hard to find the right guy.
My usual go to guy has stopped and moved abroad.
Went to Germany in oktober to pick up the ACS sides that was missing in the kit.
Calipers are ready for paint, and I'm starting to look at what color leather I want for the seats.
I'll start in the upholstery at work in a little while, and come august I'll get an apprenticeship as upholsterer, if everything goes the right way. So I'll be able to do my own interior, makes everything a lot easier.
