That's the only options I know off as straight bolt in.
I didn't go that route, but had my prop made with E30 rear, and E34 front, all cut,shut,painted and balanced for £100 :D

this might sound really wierd but i managed to use an e30 325i rear half and a e28 3.5 fron half and use the e30 prop bearing and iv used it like that for 9 month n not had a issue at all....
but iv never heard anybody else do this yet so i dont no whether i was lucky.
