Re: bmw m52 engine conversion
Bumpers look good Matt - nice work!
Rear spolier's usually make £100+ if you're not using it. Has the silver 323 got one?
Good to see you've been drinking less tea lately too! Looks so much nicer to me.
(just my opinion)

Re: bmw m52 engine conversion
That shimmy is usually also due to worn out arms and track rod ends.

I was the only bidder!
Seller was markwj28a and he seems to get other bits that are NOS.
