        there is no difference between 2 door and 4 door E30s. so yes.

        and they're all sedans. :p

                      ...but seriously - I think it would require swapping the rear panel. Not impossible, but a pain in the arse.

                      Here's one - anyone tried swapping euro chrome bumpers to an '88?

                        Heres mine.



                        Only good pic I have of the rear, muffler has been changed since lol. MT2 rear valence cut off a replica one piece bumper.

                            Exemplary sir. 2 noob questions if you wouldn't mind. Which rear valence have you welded on? and would there be any problem using it with the chrome euros? (88 vert)

                            Thanks in advance,

                              Thats a regular late model valence welded on, no idea how it would look with the chrome euros.

                              I did this conversion a few years back and Im actually thinking of taking the late model rear valence off... but thats only because mine looks like shit

                                Thanks man. Definitely looks like the opposite of shit from here. Please let me know if you want to sell that one! I come to LA quite a bit :)
