    The Brinkmeyer to me is like a hot girl you wanna hit but aren't sure about LTR possibilities. Neek, do you remember what the price was?

    It looks like it belongs on an E36.

    Most of those spoilers make the cars with Euro bumpers look even better. But the factory sport spoiler seems like a good match for the bigger US bumpers. I wish they still made that spoiler. I would like to have another one

    Am I the only person that prefers the stock valence with a euro bumper?

    These air dams... Are they late only or are there aftermarket airdams for the early valence? I'd really like to get an airdam for my early model. I have a late model sport air dam but I'd have to chop it up to get it to fit . I figured it may be better to restore it and sell it and let the proceeds go to an airdam that fits my early model

    I know Layne stated in a different thread that the BBS front air dams are interchangeable between early/late valances, but i don't know about the other ones. I particularly like the Sport air dam, but I'm doing a kind of BBS thing with my car, so I'm going with the BBS air dam... eventually.

    If you like it, and already have it, make it work! at least that's my vote...

    Here is a picture of the 1977 that I had in the late 1980s - pardon the scan quality, I tried to make the air dam more visible, and the picture is about 30 years old. This air dam was a cheapie aftermarket (hard black fiberglass) that was definitely for the early model, but the most I can remember is that it originally had some label on it like "Autobahn". It was in the back seat of the car when I got it, and it was unpainted. If anyone knows what the actual brand is, I would be curious to know.

    Also, it would be fun to know what happened to my old E21 in that picture. I was out of the country and my father sold it for me in August or September of 1990 in Saint Louis.

    My car came with a BBS spoiler that I like as well and the others.

    That looks like a painted sports air dam to my uneducated eyes.

    Huh. You might be right? It looks much better without a bumper. Not sure I couldnt run the bumper though.. Hmmmm
