bemmaboi 0 Report post Posted September 6, 2004 Ive got a 1986 4 door e30, with just the standard ext-changes, like mags,lowered etc, but im really looking for a mean looking bodykit to make it stand out. ive been looking at e-bay but they dont seem to send worldwide. Does anyone know of any makers in New Zealand, or who make body kits, and can send out to New Zealand? Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Andrew Report post Posted September 6, 2004 It depends what you want really - you have a prefacelift car so that automatically chucks the number of "easy" options out the window. Your best bet would be to look for a wrecked who has an Mtech1 kit or find one overseas. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

petone 0 Report post Posted September 6, 2004 I'm talking about giving a pre FL a facelift, how much work is it to fit the plastics bumpers and valances etc. or is the chassis way too different. I'm thinking if you can do that then you have lots more options for kits, as andy said. Or is that just not possible? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps r3vlimited.com still has the writeup on it. Beemaboi: chances are no one will tell you when one comes for sale as there will be a mad rush to buy it - and my car deserves mtech1 more Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
