bmw service parts are to expensive especialy when you can buy the same equipment from gsf ecp for a third of the cost. But when it comes to buying body panels only genuine will do!

the rear screen itself is totally different on an m3 compared to a standard e30. i'm pretty sure the side windows are the same though. standard m3 boots are plastic :wink: you can get 'conversion' kits to make an m3 boot fit a normal e30, but theyre utter utter garbage, just a fibreglass 'bib' that...

Re: my exhaust arrived today

Dan is that a s50 or a m50/52 in your car? The manifold in the pic looks like a m50/52 these manifols fit the s50 quite neatly but look very restrictive so i have decided not to use em on my car. 8O These are massively smaller than the S50 manifold's bore! Thats why i decided not to use them winkeye
