You will be extremely lucky to get any used items. Still available from BMW.

I asked at the UK main dealers and they stated they are not available.

I have a very good set of fronts if you're willing to pay shipping from CA. Rubber is completely intact and chrome is undamaged. Unfortunately very pricey. I can also see if any of the parts cars have good rears but that will take a little time.

Like ron says, available, even the R chrome gutter (at a price!).

Just order it through BMW classic's online shop, works perfectly fine! I've been ordering tons of stuff the past few months, works great!

Just enter the last seven digits of your VIN and you'll get access to all the available parts for your car.
The M88/3 was all about power, no cats. At idle the raw fuel from the exhaust will make your eyes water like an old V-8 powered muscle car's exhaust did.

Does anyone find that just because RealOEM shows a part as available when you go into the Dealer and order the part it becomes an "Ex Germany" item,Then BMW comes back and says not available or they have only three out of 4 required pieces or some other combination

I never, ever trust RealOEM to have accurate part availability information. I take the part number and Google search it (highlight and right-click the number and the option "search google for xxxxxx" will come up if using Google Chrome). That will come up with every listing from every vendor on line that lists the part. It's then simple to click on each listing to see if the part is in stock with each vendor.
