i'd like people to recomend some small parts for me to bring back.

so far i got

headlights (smoked or clear)
grills
mtech 2 or 1 if i find a kit. can only bring one back tho.
S42:D (in my dreams)
perhaps a set of wheels depending on shipping costs...
lets here some more ideas, and does anyone have any idea how much it costs to ship wheels overseas?

What part of Europe are you visiting?

To answer your question, I've had a set of 4 wheels shipped from Germany for about $200.

lol yeah def a 320is. i know of one for sale at the moment that's spun a shell and is being broken unless someone saves her :eek:
i'm a little short of funds after spending so much on my 318is else she'd be mine.
i think people like the black plastic rear number plate surrounds, the front grills (ours look slightly different), the bumpers without the running lights in the side, the smiley headlights, our de-catted exhausts etc. can't think of anything else atm, but there are other parts too. if in germany, euro wheels are pretty cheap.

no such thing as 'euro s52!'
m47 crank is also a waste of time as people aren't prepared to spend what they cost on an m42. if you do get a diesel crank of some description, be very careful too as there's lots of different ones, make sure you get the chassis number of the car its out of. trust me.

alright well do you have any PN's of cranks i should be getting?
i'm willing to spend money on the M42... so it would be worth it for me.
