BMP Design has some interesting stuff there. Or maybe it is Bavauto. Always check Pelican first, though.

hi there:
BMP sells them for about 20 bucks. The middle bolts are hard to get at from behind. Try and get your wife or girlfriend (or someone with skinny fingers) to help. It looks a lot better. Nice car, what is the paint code for that blue? Its very nice. |

Copenhagen Blue, no? I thought that was usually an Audi color.
Aftermarket repaint, maybe?

Jared,
You know we used to have a really nice 914, but I have to say after having a few Porsches, I really like these BMW's. Much more fun for the dollar. That 914 was moderately difficult to work on, pretty pokey and everything to fix it was really expensive. All in all, glad I had one, but wouldn't buy another. Ive become enough of a mental BMW guy that I doubt Ill ever buy a Porsche again. |

my wife will leave me if she doesn't see a 73 911s up on jackstands in a certain time frame. I hope she feels the same way when I rebuild that 6 in the kitchen.

Guess im lucky that my g/f is as much into Porsches as i am. Shes the kinda girl that would rebuild an engine just to see if she could. She likes the BMW, but she misses my old 2.0.
