Seeing as I hav'nt bought any body panels as yet for the cab and I'm going to see one on saturday thats breaking can any of you that currently break E30's give me some advice on what I should expect to pay for the following:

1. Wing Mirrors
2. Cabby Wings
3. Horseshoe
4. Bonet
5. Front Valance

All are in the same color as my cab, condition I have no idea, been told there good but that might not be the case.

PM me if you don't want to say publicly what you would charge.

yeah to be honest macas, i was suprised seeing as they tried to lift me for £15 for a fog light switch few years ago,

think depends who is in the office, the guy with the dreads is most helpful on price :)


.dunno if its the same car rtaylor but theres a guy breaking one for parts on here, cant remember the user name, but the chap who bought the 318is that promptly went pear shaped.

The same, the cars fairly local to me so meeting with the seller on Saturday, I have a feeling going on the pics in the forsale add it might not be for me. But no harm in looking.

The are thinner on the ground. I am going to meet the breaker himself as the car is local. Paul openly admits he's on commission on the car, I'm not trying to do anyone out of cash but there is no point in me paying extra when i can view it for myself.

Not guilty M'lud, there's only one part of the car I'm interested in and I think it'll be gone before I get to see it.

My fragging days are (almost) over :D

Mint glovebox plastics?
How do you pronounce 'either'? I say 'either', but some say 'either'. Either is correct.

A BIT? To be fair, the car was covered in dirt/dust, bad pictures and he's asking minter money! I'm not asking that sort of dough for the resprayed panels on MY wagon... and i'd say that mine is in the top 20%
