The spoiler that was once on my car
Image
What has been left after is was forcibly pulled off the car. As you can see the mounting clips were left on the boot.

If anyone knows who took it or or knows of it being offered for sale,

Please contact the Gardai at Askeaton Co. Limerick
Thanks

What happened to the car in the time between the 2 photo's?
It looks like it has fallen into a bit of a state since the first one.

Spadge: I think the first pic is just to show the type/model of spoiler, not the exact one lol :D
Wanted: Any old component speakers, complete or separate parts, let me know what you got :D

That's unlucky lad, only in Limerick.

You should ask the drifter over on E30owners to keep an eye out for it.

Some would say they did you a favour, time for a Tech 1 spoiler.

The before and after pics are the same car I am sad to say.
It has been sitting as a project for a number of years
Just getting used once a year on track days.
It jump started the day I found the spoiler missing. Two attempts and it fired not bad for sitting for year with the battery disconnected, settled down to good idle and drove it 30 yards. Good engineering dem BMWs

Regarding the fading boot lid
What you can see is the best of it, some of it is white.
Before I got it, it looks like it was resprayed a panel at a time with a different paint each time!
The bonnet paint is so soft that if a leaf lands on it during the summer it will leave a mark
I am waiting for a Lotto win before I can do a full respray
There looks to be about 5 reds on it

Thanks for the support
and hopefully the spoiler drags the gurrier into a ditch backwards

Not saying this is it but is there a possibility? Only reason i say is it has had primer slapped on it for some reason.

I doubt it travelled that far.
And 5 of the clips were left on the boot when it was ripped off
