    diving board replacements

    I have an '88 vert that at present has no bumpers. I'd like to replace with something resembling E30 M3 bumper/valances. Anyone have any suggestions?

    duuuuuuuuuuuuuuude.... search!


    w/ the vert you have a few options- plastics are almost a direct swap- euro bumpers are cabrio specific, so you'd need to source out a set of euro cabrio bumpers... e30 m3 bumpers won't match the fenders unless you cut them and make them fit or have the wider m3 fenders.

    take that run-on sentence as punishment for not searching.... hahaha.

      I've considered replacing with later model plastic bumpers, but I'd still have to deal with the valances. Has anyone ever make fake E30 M3 one pieces that were made to fit a regular E30?

          Euro is the way to go but if you go with DB then do it like this.

            The diving boards are definately in the dumpster, I'd really like to find a one piece valance/bumper alternative. Show me pics if anyone has some ideas! Thanks

              Mine is going to get a 87 325is front air dam, if I ever get around to prepping and painting it, and maybe painting the bumpers.

              It's been sitting in my garage for almost a year, along with the rear spoiler.
