Blasphemy! That thing will be a beast. I've been thinking of doing the same to a trashed e30 and keep it as a track toy :shock: I've seen that before and they are extremely powerful! Might turn out to be exactly what you are looking for! Go for it and keep me posted! Will do, once my shark is back ...

Could have got one for 4k and been in way better shape but where's the fun in that right? :D Thanks for the kind and motivating words! M6smitten: You could always move down here!! ...

Not sure about removing it from the trunk lid or shipping, but maybe we could work something out if you're still interested. It's off of a 1979 635Csi Thanks Dean! Im going to be re...

It will fit, but that style spoiler was originally used on the early E12-based cars, so you might be better off, est...

Hey guys! Been a while since an update but so much has happened! Here we go! Apparently the rear shocks that were on the car didn't even line up into the mounting holes in the car.
