They probably were a bit confused......

Try another dealer, or ask to speak to someone who has worked there for a while! They may take slight offense to that, but you'll get what you want.

I bought an M-Tech II front valance for mine last year, albeit for Ԛ£205!

So you can get any E30 bits you want from a Beemer dealer, albeit at a price?

Certain bits which are NLS (No longer supplied) are literally that. But these will be slow moving bits which are never sold any more, so they don't bother making them nowadays.
Things like M-Tech stuff will still be bought by enthusiasts and the like, so I can't imagine they will stop producing it just yet!

RHD floor mats are NLA.

I don't fancy my chances of finding a set for the convertible. In beige :roll:

Hey Zayyan, i was once looking through a Classic Car mag from the UK and i did see a few companies offering to custom make to ur spec mats for any car. Not too sure about the price, might be expensive. But u could go this route if all else fails.
