Hi guys,

Wondering if anyone can help me.

Does anybody know where I would be able to get the clips for E30 M3 Sideskirts (convertible)

Or if they could let me know the part number and I could inquire with BMW.

I did check RealOEM but couldn't really make any sense of it.

Thanks!

Do I just need two of each clip?

Works out to be around £20 which isn't too bad!

When I spoke to BM Parts, he was giving me the impression that I would need more?

Quantities required, for both sides, are shown in the ETK (Realoem) link, except for the expanding rivets.

I'm not even sure what they look like !

The skirts came with no clips.

I'm assuming the quantities on realoem are for both skirts?

How many expanding rivets do I need?

Sorry for the questions, haven't got a clue!

Convertible M3 skirts are different to 'coupe' skirts, as are MOST of the fasteners :(
The REALOEM diagram above shows all of the correct fasteners and quantities needed .

Unless your skirts have holes at the rear for rivets (two each skirt) ignore the rivets as IIRC convertibles do not have rivets securing the end. The one I have here does not and the skirts have not been filled .
