front wings - BMW or other suppliers.

I need to fit new wings and sills to my Touring, BMW ones are expensive but what are europarts, German and Swedish or KMS like? I need a proper fit when its finished.

e30 325 touring engine swap.

I want to put a bigger engine into my touring but need somebody to do it for me as I am not that clever. Possibly a 3.5 as in Total BMW this month or a M3 3.0, any suggestions of a company that can do this?

Sill trims on a touring.

On a touring, how easy is it to get the sill trims off without damaging them so I can refit them afterwards. Need to check for rust on the outside of the sills.

in the price and option list for the 1990 touring it lists rear speakers as an option but I would have thought the wiring should be there though.

James, how big a job was fitting it or did you get it done for you and how much did it cost.

engine transplants

what is a good and easy transplant into my 325?

Does either the 2.8 or 3.0 make a big difference and which variation is needed?

Any other suggestions? I like Ian Haynes' 332 but not capable of doing it myself.

Suspension kits.

I have a 1990 325 Touring that I want to fit lowered springs and sports shocks to, what do people think I should fit? I dont carry heavy loads, normally just two of us in the car.
