sorry dont have any info on where to get them just wondering if you want replacments or if your trying to put the plastics on a pre 88 E30 cos i heard it cant be done well not without major bodywork i hope im wrong though i would love the plastic bumpers on my car :rolleyes:


-Edit
just noticed in your details you have an 88 325is (i want one dam it) but your location details are not filled out so i got no idea where you live but they seem to have most things like that at http://www.bavauto.com/ but that would be new

Are the plastic bumpers/side strips difficult to replace?

This website has a guide for adusting them on a 89 325i

it looks pretty straight forward but then it usually does "look" easy

i have heard that as long as you have a brain, some cash, and some time it isnt too hard. the pre 88 cars can get plastic bumpers on them with some heavy welding and mods. i am from Langley B.C. and i have found a couple of sets of bumpers around here but they are hella expensive before painting and without installation. in the states they are about half the price, so im looking down there. but if anyone has a set laying around or knows of someone who is selling let me know.

and so more people know in the lower mainland, there are a few places just across the border where you can get BMW parts shipped too so you dont have to pay duty. i do it all the time with the stuff i buy from ebay. if anyome wants to know about this...just let me know.
