I hate to brake it to you, but every coupe front can be put on every coupe, weither it's a M3, 318i or 328i..

The only versions there is, is pre-facelift (the one you have), pre-facelift with head lamp washer, facelift and facelift with head lamp washer.

So 4 versions for every model.

Edit, for you it would be this one: *click*

Don't get the one with the head washers, the retrofit kit for this costs around 350 bucks...

wow only 52 bucks :


think i can trust that site for quality parts?

[vwk]

Well, the site looks clean. No nonsense etc.
They have it in stock, and they mention the OEM number from BMW.

So there you have a clear site, good info provided and the effort to mention every single OEM number. So I would say yes.

The price though isn't that spectacular, it's regular compared to dutch prices.

[Ivan]

well its like half the price it is from bavauto and that other place and god knows how much it is at the stealership

[Ivan]

just using this for my myspace

[vwk]

128 dollars advise price

@ dealer that is..
