supply and demand... you're hoarding all the decent E30 parts, limiting supply for everyone else and forcing the prices up!Simon13 wrote:fraid not, just in shock at parts prices! everything for E30's is on the up!

what simon has bought will just MAKE the front of this car. it will make the car just showroom fresh when lined up with all the others (mine included). A very brave move finacially but only an OEM minty loving homo such as I will appreciate his significantly lighter wallet.

Those parts were peanuts compared to whats in the bottom right hand corner of the latest invoice.

New headlamps don't make the front - plus e30topless already pulled that trick on the Hartge.
If it's not a new apron I'm going home.

That will be required anyway as he needs an A/C one. However, not on this invoiceRoyalratch wrote: If it's not a new apron I'm going home.

Simon13 - stop pretending to go quiet in order to project the image of the image of late night part animal doing the wild weekend nights out thing!
We know you're in there circling those boxes with an assortment of sharp objects - now open and get snapping!

no no! i've been making my 328i touring fly! giving it some easter TLC. I've done the clutch, 328i sport front springs. AND found cruise control in the breakers yeard for £20!! love it

Just some of all the new refurbed clutter!

Sorry to disapoint

All coming together now! i've had my C2 badge for over 2 years now. £70 it cost me then they're £136 plus VAT now
thats sits in my tool box in its own drawer with the rear one and alpina badges! Grills too there not funny £55 plus VAT. We got the kidney for crimbo from my mum

Caliper carriers blasted and re done. Will go with the calipers nicely for that OE look. The bigger ones are the 296mm Alpina big front brake jobbies

Sill trims new. I've only taken picutres of 1 set but i have both sides!
I've bought a proper factory Climate A/C setup also. Had my fuel filler neck re done. Plus loads more i can't remember
Still F**king waiting for my H&R anti roll bars to come back from that lazy Sh!t Barry which i "lent" to him for the ring trip last year they were brand new. I'd like some new bars back but thats probably wishful thinking. This has been on going for months me waiting. I've been told i can drive a 90 mile round trip and take them off myself.
I NEED them back so i can finish of the back end. So minor hold ups like this cost time when your constantly waiting and asking? Maybe a public rant will get his f**king finger out
Anyhow apart from that its all good

come on boys sort it out. Handbags at dawn and all that.
Wasn't for me to let the cat out the bag
. Was expecting Si to come back sooner but poor old boys getting older now so is in bed by 10pm.
We need to push Si hard on this now. He gets married this year and we all know what happens then
I had a resto on the go when I got married. took another 9 years to finish the b4stard!!!
I didn't say it wasn't headlightsNot headlamps, not trims, grilles or slats and not apron.

carpet definitely is peachy, will look spankers after a quick once over.
Impressive range on the 328 touring Si, wonder if it would have made it all the way home without the quick splash and dash?!
Now get it all installed, let me know if you want a hand with ice.

328 was epic today, returned 36mpg can't complain at that. Fuel light came on on the M1 just by Milton Keynes..........was reading 0 on the M25 by the M3 but you can get another 10 miles on that. I dont think i'd of made it home from your work Henry tbh
I think i covered another 65 odd miles with the light on once it lit up
Cruise is a godsend for road trips.
