Does an M3 rear bumper fit on standard E30? If so is there anything I should know about fitting?
Cheers

Genuine items won't fit 100% and Simon's diagram is a good representation as to why! HOWEVER! If you go for the glassfibre ones, they can be butchered to make them fit but in my opinion won't look right and are glassibre at the end of the day hence the finish won't be anywhere near as good as factory. Topwelshman has them on his racer and they fit well enough for a race car but they'd look wrong on a street car in my opinion without a LOT of work from a good bodyshop.
