      I have a spare front euro bumper I was planning on selling eventually, if your interested.

        Thanks everyone! I would love a front euro bumper, keep me posted! And I don't have another crack free dash, the one in my parts car is terrible. I hope to have some more updates this weekend.

        Oh, JBird I would love a pic of the abandoned one you see, maybe I can buy it lol

                  Technically speaking they have coilovers from the factory...just not adjustable or fancy like GCs.

                  AFAIK no1 makes a real "kit" for the e21, at least not on this side of the Atlantic. But if your crafty w/ a welder etc you can fab up a set pretty easily. Dave-gerous' thread comes to mind.

                  Do some reading on:

                    Yea I haven't found any direct kits, but ebay crap works, and I think GC stuff might? That is definitely on my list, a good hearty suspension drop :D

                      therefore, their value is much greater.

                            I saw the broken links and read all the comments and just thought wtf is going on why can't I see anything and everyone else can?
                            Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.
                            This is the internet. Just make something up.
