one of those things that is quite rare but not hugely desirable I've seen some sell for 3 figures and seen others not break double figures.
there are some half decent after market/universal ones that can work well look alright

IMO The only armrest for an e30 are to integrate a pair of e34 / e32 armrests into the sides of a sports seat. Look OEM and are comfortable to use.
If I had black leather, I'd have done it by now but try finding a pair of indigo ones......
The aftermarket ones look shite especially that monstrosity Jim has posted. HTF, does that blend into any e30 interior.
