e30ftw 410 Report post Posted September 24, 2013 Badass. Good price too. Is the sump guard the OEM SA one? Any mods to fit under an m50? I had one when I did an m50 in my last e30 and the engine / sump sat too low. Interested to know if you are using the m5 / e28 535 engine mounts?

Yeah its the sa OEM one with e28 mounts - The bar itself fit fine just the shield needed slight reshape. (big **** off hammer and heat fixed that) I get the odd scrape on the 15's - When it was resprayed I had the guards rolled and could run a wider 16, no rubbing and don't remember ever hitting the sump guard.

adams202 1 Report post Posted September 25, 2013 Where's the ACS steering wheel? Lol That was quick Andrew! Not included unless new owner wants to pay the extra. Otherwise I think Andy has first dibs Also have a genuine Tech 2 boot spoiler that could be negotiated with buyer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
