<------- so you can see what kind of car I have.. I HAVE to get rid of those diving boards... they are really cramping my style... no, just kidding they're ugly... anyways... I found some euro bumpers... from a 316i e30. they are not the chrome type they look like they are the body color... soooo what do you guys think? interchangeable or not? they are in london, so I would rather not pay for them, have them shipped, and then find out that they don't fit!! thanks.
used
Drive on, Bimmerheads.

how do you know they fit when you dont know what kind of bumper he's asking about? if they are the early version (chrome) then they will fit but require a euro valance, if they are the later ones (body colored) then they are the same as the US bumpers and require the updated valance.
one of these days when you break down on the side of the road, far from civilization, in the dark, and you're sleepy. You're going to be like "Damn, I wish I had those 'diving boards' still. I sure as shit could sleep on them!" - ignore your seats. :P
