    Looking for Euro bumpers

    Does anyone here have a set of front and rear Euro bumpers for sale, or know someone who does?

    What exactly do the Euro bumpers look like?

    like this... as opposed to the ugly North American bumpers with the big rubber accordion side pieces with the reflector. *barf*

    That means it had a US bumper (diving board), most take them off or tuck them.

    I've got new euro chrome, but only the main pieces, no rubber insert, clips to attach and the brackets. I ordered from Wallouth und Netsch,they have ALL the parts. You can order them and ship. The cost vs. trying to find an old set is resonable. I paid about $150 for the chrome parts (3 for each bumper). Got 2 with the euro bumpers in decent shape, so these are sitting in paper and bubblewrap.

    Watch out if you're going to do euro. The panels, especially the rears, need to be modified to cover up all the altered bodywork to attach all that US rubber. It's not impossible, but get ready to patch and stuff.

    It's for my 323i project. I'm already doing some minor bodywork. Patching a few holes is no big deal. It's getting fresh paint eventually anyway. You got all front and rear chrome pieces for $150? What does Walloth and Nesch charge for shipping?

    Bump.
