    Sold the 7, who wants my heckblende?

    Well, after 6 months I couldn't deal with daily driving the 7 anymore. The gas mileage was killing me, and unfortunately I don't have the means for two vehicles. With that said, I did pull the heckblende off the car, so that I could offer it to an enthusiast rather than sell it with the car. If some of you recall I originally got it from Shogun, and it is a very hard to find part. Definitely gives the car some nice European flair. The only problem with it is that there is one imperfection in the reflective mold, that makes it look like a crack but it is not one. Once on the car, and license plate mounted up you can't notice it anyways. Here are a few pics:

    Here you can see the imperfection on the upper left side:







    I am looking to get $200 or best offer shipped and insured within the US.

    Oof if only I had the disposable income to snag this. That's a steal, and I'd love to have it, but no money . Good luck with your sale

    Sorry I just saw your reply. It was lowered on custom made coilovers. The wheels were 18s.

    Yes they look good from the pics. Hopefully we can see some more. By the way do you have pics of yours? How did you lower it? I just bought some 18s and want to know how I should go about lowering the car

    well the thing is i cut 2 1/2 coils from the front and got a nice height in the front. the car still rides comfortably. the problem is the springs in the back. i am thinking if cutting 2 1/2 coils in the back will still give me a good, comfortable ride. if so i will do that.

    you should have a similar ride quality as with the front suspension most people say it doesnt make much difference,I would suggest you opt for springs havin one or two coils less rather then having the oem ones cut

    I cut springs and the ride was terrible. My coilovers were NEX welded with the strut housings cut an inch and welded. The wheels were 18x8.5 and 18x10. Also, my Heckblende is still available.

    Is that Heckblende sold meanwhile? I got an inquiry from Australia for the long version = for EURO license plates = same as shown above. I got another one from my buddy's Alpina B12. Just sent him the pics, but if he does not want to have it, I got 1 available.

    That one is for EURO plates, but most probably goes to Australia, I might get in another one for Japanese license plates, that is approx the same size as US plates, but the holes for the license plate bracket in the rear plate of the trunk are in a different position in US, so you might have to drill new holes into the Heckblende or attach the Heckblende to a license plate bracket.

    I have another used one on stock. That is the version for U.S. and Japanese size license plates, shorter than for example the German license plates. My Japanese license plate is 33 cm long and 18 cm high. Like the left version http://produkte.bilder-speicher.de/0...-japanese.html
    Do not know the size of license plate in your country. US $ 200 shipped by registered air parcel, import duty receiver has to pay, if applicable. Shipping overseas in properly packed carton and that size costs me about $50-60, that is why I have to ask for that price. First come, first get.
