Can you spot the new goodie I just got courtesy of DPP? I'd say VERY few E30s can be found with this installed. I like it, makes it look much more finished than bare metal does! Showin off the BMW of Chattaboogie free advertizing too! Who's lookin out for ya? ;)

The trunk lid cover? What model e30 does that come on? I haven't seen one before (the trunk lid in my 325ix is naked....)

Not sure what model it comes on, but I found it in the Euro ETK under part # 51 49 1 916 246. Brian says they are plenty available if anyone else wants one!

I seriously think it cost me $57.00 or so. Well worth it in bling factor! :D

The crooked hood it from the car getting a pretty good lick in the front, and me not wanting to replace the
radiator support. Other than that angle you really can't tell. You can see the gap pretty well in that pic...

Kyle, That trim piece really finishes the lid. I see you have 2 lights on the lid, too - Lotus set that up in my wife's 325e. I put in a large toolbox - wonder if the trunk trim comes in a version for that, or I cut down one like yours?

I guess you could cut it down if you wanted too. The ETK says "only for small toolkit". Maybe a larger version is available, I don't know.

How many e30s have you seen with "outie" dings on the trunk lid because of overfilling the trunk with luggage? This would prevent that! :)

Yep, it has no real value other than its curiosity factor, but I like it. I think that the drifting website your profile is linked to promotes a waste of money as well, but to each his own... ;)
