Hello all,
as the title says really. It looks the same shape as mine on my 518i but seems to have less bolts holding it in. On my 518i (E reg)there's a bolt behind the rear valence (drivers side) but not on the 520i. It's a c reg 520i that I'm getting the tank from. Are the bolt positions different on the tanks or did the earlier e28s use less bolts?
Thanks in advance! :D

Yes it'll fit. E28 tanks are pretty much all the same.
