2 piece systems were fitted to facelift e30's and consist of a front section with integral downpipes/centre box, and a rear section with the rear box.

3 piece systems were fitted mainly to chrome bumper models and consist of seperate components, downpipe-centre box-rear box.

I have a 3 piece fitted to my 2.7, i could get hold of better quality 3 piece parts than 2 piece and you can get a neater fit with the 3 piece too.

Only downside is a 3 piece costs a bit more :cry:

Cheers,
