            Yeah. Actually I am very interested to see how that fits. Realoem has it as a different part number, but there are a bunch of 535i boosters and MCs available on CL at the moment. Thanks!

              I've always wanted to build a bug, or something of that nature, with that kind of travel.

              That looks horrendously unsafe screwing around like that on public roads, but hey its California, idiots will be idiots.

                        Sell them now while the market is hot for them.

                        IMHO - they are way over priced for what they are, and honestly, the look is very, very dated.

                        (sorry for those who's souls are crushed now...)

                          ^ I agree. would never pay over $200 for a set of tail lights, let alone like $600. would much rather put that money to parts that are drivetrain related...

                          yes they are OG. they just aren't for me or my cars...

                            Thanks. Looks similar in size to the standard 325i if not bigger.

                            I think I'll keep my eyes out for an iX/E32 booster + MC if anyone has any leads.

                                no offense taken. It's the similar argument for the E30 M3. We all know what they used to go for a few years ago, so seeing the price spike really makes me salty. But it is what it is.
