I'm "specials needs"

I need someone with a perfect set of Euro bumpers or a perfect set of DB including the front valiance to drive over to my house and install them for me.

1. I have limited to zero availability to go bring my car anywhere.
2. I tend to get back muscle strain so I can't do any type of lifting
3. I'd rather pay someone to install it and get it right.


Now, I do realize that many of you think i'm crazy to want to install different bumpers but I actually like the "classic" look of e30's versus some of them with alot of mods.

I picked my particular one for purchase because of the more than fair price plus the performance crendentials that came with it.

The bumpers are the last major exterior mod until I get the car repainted.

OH heck ya. M3 rack came out of my car without having to bend the tabs or lift the engine up....sooo stoked, because I am sooo ready to be back in my little bimmer. It looks so sad on jack stands, and the gentle growl has been stifled far too long.

Dibs on the old rack for trash prices?

Get it reinforced and welded. We've had more customers with broken subframes on the 318 then 325.

I need to do that,I bent it when I did my motor mounts :(

is it wrong that i may want an e39 m5?

[R3Z3N]

^^Hell no. Tucking Fits IMO!

[ethrtyiS]

my only dilemma is gas. :/ i kind of want to just get one and see how it goes...

[yert315]

You can afford one?

[R3Z3N]

^They are only $15-20kish. But for the average R3V E30 owner, that's 3x more than they are used to ;-) Gas...meh...it only burns.

[mkcman17]

I've seen them occasionally sub-10k

[R3Z3N]

What, with blown engine or over 200k miles or salvage title?

[mkcman17]

Usually flirting with 200k.

yessir. for some clean ones too. i've got some under my radar. i really like the look of the 01-03 however i could settle for a 00 for a good price. and actually, just did a ton of research and people are getting about 20-23 city and 28-30mpg highway doing 50-65. hm, i could possibly live with that.

^I bet that MPG is read from the OBC, not from gas pump calculations But seriously, don't look back on MPG. Leave that to the Vettes with their crazy good LS engines.
