    You got it, I'll get down there tomorrow and get you one. Also...what the hell happened to your poor car?!

    I've been itching to get euros for my alpine 84 since I've had it.

    So I was poking around more with that bronzit pos and came across a hole the size of a tennis ball right in the corner of the driver foot well.

    When i poked it and I felt the carpet foam I knew I had an issue lol.
    Well, I have the aforementioned bumper (off my 323i) and a pretty rough rear bumper (car was bumped in a parking lot; remember when I said you arguably had the nicer of the two cars, lol) that I may part with eventually, just want to get my car looking presentable first. I'll be sure to post here once I've made my mind up.

    PS, I'm going to sell my 86/87 euro fogs + buckets to help fund the rebuild if anyone localish is interested.

    Why the waffles did I sell my spare front bumper [emoji17]

    I've always wanted a ds early model. That's a good buy, Austin.

    Thanks! I anticipate it hanging around for a bit.

    You had me until bronzit. Still, I think your car is probably nicer. Are those Prelude Recaros, or are they Flo-Fit seats? That car looks pretty damn decent. Do you want to part with the plate filler?

    What color is yours? 318i are pretty terrible to drive, but I'm sure you'll end up dealing with that issue fairly quickly. Definitely neat for the LTW factor, though.

    I'm kinda excited for this one. It's my first genuine Euro spec E30, although, heavily federalized :( it might end up being the permanent shop rat...
    I'll one down you.

    [














    250k miles, enough shifter play to get lost in the row, and rust.

    I took it in as a partial trade for my 4runner so I didn't really care, but I think theres a lot more rust than just the battery box.

    I think that I'm going to part the windows off it for my superlight build

    Might even paint the is valance white and slap it on, at least until I can find euro bumpers and an alpina valance

    Anyone need a sweet running m10 for an 02?

    Complete B25 conversion
    Z4 steering rack conversion
    346 LSD
    Euro sunshade
    Checkered cloth sport interior
    Diamantschwarz-metalic, which was a Euro spec only color, until 1987, from what I can tell
    Meh body and paint, a good driver
    The NICEST rockers/jack points of any E30 I've ever parted or owned. Really mind blowing...

    All the Euro glass, lights and instruments were removed when federalized. Kinda bums me out, but oh well. I'd love to shove an M30 in.
