Parting out two 530i

Post by fochmann »

I picked up four 530i, one a 77 and the other three a 78.

Two of the 78s are beyond repairing. The other 78 is my DD and for sale once I finish my 77 over the winter.

The two that are being parted out are both grey and have red leather interiors. They were running cars until parked and one has a fairly new exhaust system. I have a set of the 14" Alpina looking wheels not the smooth spoke and then one 14" smooth spoke Alpina type wheel. I also have front and rear BBS spoilers. A lot of other good parts. All the glass and what not. One car is complete and the other is in pieces right now. Let me know what you need. You can pm me here or call Andrew at 859-797-1499.

Please send me pix's of the exhaust system. I need one for my '75 530i. Also pix'es of the air dam & spoiler. And I need a red driver's door handle. The part that you grab to close the door.
Also, the driver's door stop? Maybe pix's of everything you have.
Send to; "gripgreg@aol.com'.
Thanx in Advance,,,,Greg

Here is a picture of the BBS front Air Dam.

Would you guys be interested in a good quality fiberglass reproduction of the air dam? I am willing to do it, and have done it in the past but would need to know that 10 or 15 people are interested in it before I create the mold.

I was thinking something around $150 for the replicas, It will take some time to make them and cost about $60 in material to do it correctly. Let me know on the wire and if you need any other injection parts.

Price on the airdam?

Replicating is a good idea, but it would be hard to find enough buyers. We considered it with mine a couple years ago but only had a few people lined up.

Ok lets start a list of all who is interested in a replica for $150:

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.

If we can fill the list I will do it.

Also, The rear BBS spoiler replicated in fiberglass and not the foam crap at $60:

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.

The airdam itself I would rather not sell. I like it too much.

I think you'll have more succes if you make a special topic for it. The title as it is now won't trigger any people searching for air dams :). Besides that also post on mye28.com.

Very good idea to take this to Gen'l Conversation 'cause, for the moment, this is just conversation & e28 forum to get a larger response.
Also, count me in, but, I don't know how to add my name to the list.
Please add my name like this; GripGreg.

IT has been recreated in the general conversion section with both of your names added to the list.
