Hi mate,

Any chance you could quote me on the follwing bits and pieces including delivery please? I would be able to order together to save postage if possible:

Both inner (outer edge) arches - Think I have seen these quoted elsewhere here for about £76?
Both outer rear 3/4 repair sections? Are these different to the later Tech 2 with lower arches?
Front floor corner repair sections. Its gone around the throttle pedal and on the passenger side. Are these available?

Also is there a fitting kit available for the Tech 1 side skirts with all clips and screws? If so how much please?

Many thanks

Scott

Yeah its a 1988 325 Sport Mtech 1, 2 door coupe.

I haven't been able to have a good look as I haven't collected the car yet, but I am assumming the front floor section is available complete, however, I suspect it may be very expensive and for the reasonably small repair needed I may just use sheet steel or try it cut it out of scrapyard car. Any help you can offer would be great.

The floor pan is no longer available so I would suggest repairing it or find a decent scrapyard car as you say.

The Rear qtr panels are different due to the different rear lamps.

For the Side Skirt clips I would budget £30-40 at the very most

:D

I have seen repair sections consisting of around 2 inches of arches all the way around the rear arches, you can just spot weld in and fill as necasarry. Do BMW offer thses repair sections for the rear 3/4 panels? Or are these just pattern items?
