You do have to cut off your front tow hooks but other than that it should all pretty much bolt up.

I'm with Eurospeed on the U.S. trim thing.

Also, my OCD says that since U.S. e30's came with no fender sidemarkers, then you have to have the sidemarkers on the bumper trim.

What is a OCD? The side marker thing was put into effect by US Gov. in 1968

OCD stands for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. In some cases, it makes the person who has it go "crazy" persay if something isn't right, such as slightly misaligned body panels, small chips in paint, if your kidney grill doesn't sit EXACTLY plum on your car.

Basically everyone on the forum who is meticulous about their car says they have OCD, like it makes them unique/better or is a quality they posess. In reality, its just a psychological disorder that noone wishes to have.

QFT.

I actually have several legitimate OCD compulsions, but none that are so bad that they affect my life in any negative way.

Don't want to be argumentative, but makes me "unique/better?" I think most of us are just joking around when we say we have OCD. I don't have a real OCD disorder, but I do have high standards and like things to be ordered and well sorted. It's like how it bothers a lot of people on r3v to see an ///M badge on the grill of a stock, non-///M e30.

I don't think he meant it to be that serious, it probably just irks him like it does me when people say "I'm OCD about this...". Anal would be a more appropriate term.

But when is anal NOT an appropriate term? :D
