Hello fellow E30 folk,
I am looking for just the front bumper carrier, as per item 8 in http://bmwfans.info/parts-catalog/E30-4 ... per_front/
It does not need to be perfect in any way, just not badly broken. Why? Because I will be removing my own full bumper so that I can refurbish it and have it painted. But I need something temporary to hold the indicators and number plate in place so that I can still drive the car. A price including postage to Gloucestershire would be great.
Many Thanks,
Chris

Hello akalair,
Many thanks for the offer, but I will decline. I have no need for full bumpers, as mine are only in need of a bit of TLC/prep before re-paint. There is no more room in my garage/sheds/Keter boxes/cupboards etc., for any more spare parts! So, I am still on the lookout for a used carrier/crash bar/backing bar or whatever other term is used, OEM 51118100572.
Thanks all,
Chris

Hi Chris. No problem. How much would you pay for the carrier?

Hello akalair,
Sorry for the late reply - I have been thinking about all this. If indeed you do have just the carrier (51118100572) then I think £30 would be a realistic amount? Thing is that I only need it for a few weeks and then you could have it back. I don't mind if I lose money doing this; it makes it convenient to continue using the car while the body-shop paints my own bumper. Does that make sense?
Thanks,
Chris
