Re: Red 1989 Auto: Rear end damage - loads of new parts
im Interested in the exhaust down pipes only, no cat. Let me know if that’s something you’ll part with Best, Hector Hector, The down pipes and cat are one piece, or are you asking to cut off the cat and send just the down pipes? Curious minds have to know!! https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/showpart...
