I have an 1989 E30 Cabrio. It has damage to the left front. I need a bumper, fender, head light assembly and grill. I was wondering are these items model specific ie cabrio or will any e30 fender fit. I know that the sedans got a face lift and got the plastic bumpers but pre 89 should work. Any help in this would be appreciated.

So you need Chrome bumper bits, and headlamps,
Fenders are cab specific, they ar about 1" -1 1/2" longer.
I have new Chrome bumper ends, but no centre.

There is someone selling headlamps in the for sale section

The cab wing is actually made from two parts spot welded together. If the lowest part at the rear (below the rubbing strip) is undamaged and not rusty, it's possible to transfer this piece to a cut off saloon wing. The join is behind the rubbing strip, so the welding doesn't have to be pretty.
