wat up Max?

Everyone here is excited about the skirts.  Apparently they are a challenge to get.  I will have pics as soon as those babies get here. When are yours arriving?

gear,

Hope this helps.  its a c&p from my order.

I ordered everything so my price includes everything but duct tape.  I ordered from Bav Auto.  I work with Andy Lund .  He had a 91 318is and now owns a E30 325is.  I would encourage to move on getting skirts soon.  I think its getting harder to find the skirts.  FYI, Andy would know more.  andyl@bavauto.com

obviously not cheap (esp after you add paint) but I think its worth it for brand new factory pieces. the parts were backordered at first. got lucky with a quick turn around on that. theres a dodgy set on ebay right now: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BMW-E30-325is-318is-Side-Skirts-body-kit_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33654QQihZ013QQitemZ230126364442QQrdZ1

i am sure with sanding and paint they could be decent.

These are cheap R&D fiberglass knockoffs and way different looking than the IS skirts.

The one thing I would emphasize if installing these yourself would be to measure twice and drill once. If you have the factory template, then even better. Since I live in snow area, I applied liberal mounts of paint in the drilled area. I would mention this to whomever installs the skirts.

FL318is, you better follow it up with a nice photoshoot to make up for this lame teaser. :D

Thanks!  I was hoping the template comes with.  If not I recall a site that had the template for the trunk lip spoiler.  Maybe I can find it.

Yeah with the monsoon season approaching I will be using the paint.  I will be doing a photo shoot as soon as those babies go on.

Those ebays don't look too bad.
