Lightbulb Body parts 328IC Help

We just added a three series to our garage. I have had several 5 series over the years while my poor wife drove leased Pontiac front wheel drive thingys. I too was once a devoted GM fan until they quit building cars for me.
Anyway the 1997 328 cab is her new car and I would like to update the body some. I don't want some Mikey Mouse thin,no jel coat, poor fitting abortions. One bump on a curb and you know. What if any original material front skirt, or air dam parts are available. Does the AC Snizer M3 fit this car? Can I up grade the fogs to the bullet style? Is there a supplier in Canada?

Any advice would be appreciated

1997 328IC 115,442 klm
1992 535IA (my Baby) 320,889 klm

BMW Roundel

Bavarian Autosport sells M3 bumbers, sideskirts, moldings and so on. Anything else on a BMW looks stupid as if you just got out of a ghetto!
What I've seen in Canada for suppliers then the only BMW place is your "firendly" dealer *******!
What it seems to me here in Canada are very few BMW enthusiasts, mostly that dumbass lawyers, ceo and real estate agents that buy/lease these cars in order to abuse them and return back them to used car market!
In short, look either in US or Germany!

Thanks Roald. The car is a sport model with the side skirts. I'll check their site for details. Your right about BMW's in Canada. My neibours kid asked me when she first learned to drive if I got lessons on driving like an &%$)# when I got my first Bimmer. It seem the US Britian and Europe know better, the true fun of these cars.
On another subject the three piece rims show some rust on some of the bolts. Do you know of any refinishers? The Aluminum is fine, and tires new. The car sat for some time flat spotting the worn tires.
