DW wants a new black alcantara interior (which i doubt i'll find but i'll look)

Gabe wants a new facelift hood and a non-working 6cyl block to make a table out of

Anybody else? It'll prob take me 30-45min to get there so i'll check this again (and if you need me to look for another model let me know so I keep my eye out)

UGDO! If you find them snatch them up. Puppies sell like hotcakes on the internet, provided your yard will let them go for the right price. Dedicated BMW yard or generic wrecker?

Replacement center black cube dash trim that goes above the radio..............
Would be nice to have a spare set of high beam reflector bowls in case I screw mine up... standard halogen is fine.


Thank you!

Gabe, do you care if it's a e36 block? Ecology has some.

Casey, all the 36s had the pipes taken already.

Going to another yard now

damn, be on the lookout for any newer 3 series sport seats (with the extended thigh bolsters)... those you can easily turn around and sell for some $. If you find any E92 M3 seats, LMK immediately and I'll call the yard to snatch um up!

Ok, so the results are as follows:

3 junkyards - mostly I saw E36's followed by E30's. only in the last one did I see newer cars (E46/E36/E39/E53).

DW - part 7, I remember seeing some at the last place where they actually had E46's but the cars looked dried out as hell from the sun. Also, no alcantara - just stock 3er interiors. What do you want? the foam or just the backing plastic. I'm sure the plastic is fine but the foam is probably garbage.

most of the E46's I saw were at the junkyard because they were in a front end collision. They didn't have the part I was looking for at all (fog lamp reflector) and even if they might have I'm not sure it necessarily would have survived a front end collision/have the correct side.



I did see these at the last lot in case somebody wants them, not sure about the offset/would they work - $300 is what the guy quoted me for the set. Could make for a nice extra set, but very little tread left on tires (they said BF Goodrich G-Force T/A... never used them myself)

If you were to do a complete e90 LCI light swap to your car, is a new trunklid required? Just curious.

fronts no... i had the lights LCI halogens in my E90 328xi with the pre LCI hood.
The trunk/tails are a different shape so you'd need the LCI trunk to do the LCI tails.

Personally, I love the LCI rear however I'd rather spend the money on the BMW performance body kit for the E90's.
