Anyone have any repair panels they are looking to part with ? Interested in things like genuine early rear panel p/n 41341959874 , passenger side boot floor chassis rail with the towing eye or any of the panels for the jack and battery boxes, the inner sill closing panels p/n 41111925549 & 41111935854 , possibly a drivers side M3 door, handbrake tubes, scuttle panel part which the fuse box bolts to 41131955930 or anything you got.
I'm aware places like E30 Garage Norway do some bits, but looking for genuine stuff ideally.
All bits for the restoration of my car.

One word of warning, new BMW panels are not what they used to be and still need quite a bit of "fitting". There was talk they are using Klokkerholm but have not seen any proof.

Old original is probably best if you can get non-rotted ones but the usual suspects have mostly gone now. Very few good shells with these bits are being broken these days.

E30 Garage Norway and Valcas are still probably best bets for the usually rotted bits if they are still NLA from BMW.

Only the rear panel out of that lot is remade aftermarket, all the rest is on the off chance someone has new old stock stuff going spare. E30 Garage Norway / Valcas make some of the battery and jack boot boxes, but even they vary somewhat from a genuine panel.
Wasn't expecting many replies, but if you don't ask....
