Probably simple question to you lot but, Im trying to order some new rear arches for when I finally get round to welding them on.
Most suppliers only list upto 1987 E30 (pre-facelift). I have a 1991 H so would these be EXACTLY the same??
Thanks guys/gals!

Early arches are indeed bigger and go higher up on the body when compared to the later ones.

tip - when fitting m-tech2 kit on early car fit the later arches and the rear bumper then fits perfect
not sure about legroom don`t think thats true, i think they just changed the arch profile
