RE:<E30>M3 Body Kit on Convertible

["Thomas Maus, Jr." <tbm2@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

BMW actually made E30 M3 convertibles in '89, They were not exported to the
U.S.  and I don't know how many or how long.  It is very possible that these
are the pictures you saw.  I don't think that anyone is making aftermarket
E30 M3 body kits that look anything like the real ones.  You can, of course,
buy the real parts, but that would be muy expensivo.  One thing that I have
seen that looks great is the M-Technic E30 325ic's.  This look is more tame
than the M3, but they look great.  You might find these original parts
available thru the back of the Roundel from a private party, or on the
Digest.
