    Car looks good, euro bumpers might be doable at that price, but shipping is the killer. Not interested in a regular plastic swap? That can be alot cheaper for sure.

          I don't think you can do euro bumpers on a late model e30. I believe you're stuck with the ones you have, plastic, or M tech 2

            eurobumpers can be made to fit an LM e30, but, they look like shit (they are thinner and make a 1" visible gap). go plastic, looks way better.

              ^ correct. I like Euros too, but making them work on a LM is almost impossible without lots of custom fabrication. You could always do all-black plastics like base model Euro cars, that would be different.

                        IF he really wants euro bumpers he can run them but he need to shorten the gap one the front valence and rear apron to make up for the gap. That is is he REALLY wants em.

                              yea plus 1 on the plastics

                              oh and is it just me or are your tires a tad oversized?

                              it may be my jealousy speaking because i wish my 88 looked as good as yours

                              *edit* i think ive seen your car on facebook in that e30 group theyve got going
