I purchased a 1992 850i and want to add a body kit to it but I can not find one anywhere! Does anyone know where I can get one?
Thanks..

Try Racing Dynamics & Erebuni Corp

They both still have kits for the 850 - not sure if you'll like them though. I still think the CSi kit is the best but pricey!!

Ditto for the CSi Kit (See my car with it). The price is actually reasonable. You can also have the Zeemax body kit, but that is the most expensive kit ever (Especially the Wide Body kit).

Zeemax Site (http://www.zeemax.com/7e31ss.htm)

Here is a Zeemax kit for sale at the other BMW forum Classifieds (http://www.roadfly.com/bmw/classifieds/general/detview.php?view=47907)

Alpina will not sell you anything unless you have the Alpina serial # to prove that you are the Alpina owner.

I actually saw a few the other day but was not really impressed by them. I would LOVE to get my hands on a AC Schnitzer body kit!!!

Yup. Close. maybe a tad more if you add the Front Splitters.

Don't forget the other $5000 to put the kit on the car plus the cost of a whole car repaint so all of the panels match.

If I find a twin turbo 8 I will go with the Zeemax wide body. I have the Zeemax trunk wing molded into my car and the Zeemax rear window spoiler.

I've been looking for a body kit that makes it look newer as well as futuristic, take some of the geometrical aspect out of it, make it rounder like an M6, even though it has a V12 :). Also been trying to find a way to change the headlights and tail lights for it, I want to take those bulky pop up headlights and do a halo conversion and in the back do something for LEDs. Already plan on doing vertical doors, Supersprint mufflers and a turbo application from STS. Any chance you guys know of a good body kit? Zeemax is well expensive. I was going to put on M6 rims as well, but with the Zeemax wide body kit and wheel spacers, that might be my only option. -Josh

I thought M6 wheels only come in 19 inches so that would be too big for an 8 unless you cut something to fit.

I've seen it done, the 850 doesn't have as big a sidewall, so they simply used different sized tires as far as width goes, but has more of a rubber band effect. Still trying to find a light conversion for it and LED tail lights. The body kit I guess has to be Zeemax.

Gault Bmw, Ask to speak with Charlie Spears, It's the Cleanest look for your 8 IMO!
