Rocking horse poop,

Oguz327 has one on his sterling silver 2dr. Looks great but was hard to find iirc.

I was after one too for my facelight 2dr, but couldn't track one down.
Don't think they did one for pre facelift did they?

A couple of these came up for sale on an ebay-style site over here. I don't know if they're oem, they have BMW written across them but the number plate would hide that.

Nearly bought one a while ago, but realised the seller was the legendary Ratch, so stayed well clear in the end!

Ratch may be many things but I don't think he's a rip-off merchant.

Got that impression since, to be honest however at the time was warned off and had never really heard of him back then!

Mr Lee, you are sadly wrong for once, it looks good. :)

I think it looks great on Ozwaldos car, perhaps it reminds me of the rear end of an audi rs2 and thats why I like it? :mad:

The version with BMW written across them are for the pre-E30 3-series.
There are copies, with less sharp moulding and more 'candy red' colour and they are rare.

The original BMW ones are stamped with the roundel, are an exact colour match for the rear lights and are impossibly rare. I have 2 BMW ones, both from eBay Germany.

One is on my Lazer Blue 318iS.

It's awesome.

Ya get me.
