I recently brought a nice 2 door white 1987 316.
Body work is all in perfect condition but i want to replace all panels (rear, front panels, sills, bumpers + spoiler) with the wide body kit to create a real baby m3.
Thing is, I'm really not sure on the first thing about fitting a body kit. I was hoping someone could let me know how feasible it will be to fit this kit to my car.
Will it need fabrication? if any. If it will be within a possible bracket I will be sending it all straight to a body shop near by me to fit and paint the parts for me, just don't want to spend like close to a grand to find out it's not possible and i can't find anywhere that tells me what I need to know.
