I'm converting the car to 5-speed drivetrain from a 1995 M3, so many of the items I removed from the car are no longer needed. The car was Boston Green and had 240,000 miles on it. Automatic Transmission & ECU $100 Airbags (both driver & passenger) $50 ea. 6 disc CD changer with black carpet cover $50 Springs $20 ABS Module $50 Plastic Engine Undertray $20 Tow hitch & 2 bike carrier $100 Thanks for looking, Dave Last edited by DaveKern; 05-03-2010 at 01:18 AM. Reason: updated with list of what I have left | | | 12-31-2009, 03:18 AM | #2 | Member Join Date: Dec 2009 Location: Ft. Worth Posts: 53 | I need outside rear-passenger molding. black strip just in front of the rear wheel. I need Fog lights.. including the wiring/toggle button. Also, I need the rear overhead handle behind the drivers seat. handle, or just the plastic piece around it. If shipping is a problem, I could probably get somebody to pick it up for me. I just moved from Aurora 2 years ago. | | | 12-31-2009, 03:30 AM | #3 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2008 Location: New Orleans Posts: 970 | the threshold cover on the passenger side, the part that covers the edge of the carpet on the inside __________________ ^being rebuilt^ until then: daily car: 96' Blue DASC'd ti with koni coilovers slowly progressing... weekend car: 85 1/2' 944 Porsche no a/c, p/s, gutted cat, loud as hell exhaust, loud as hell sound system | | | 12-31-2009, 04:25 AM | #4 | Member Join Date: Oct 2008 Location: hawaii Posts: 44 | Sweet Jebus with a donut, tell me you have a functioning, quiet cat. And you are willing to ship it. | | | 12-31-2009, 05:31 AM | #5 | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2009 Location: Denver Posts: 373 | Hi guys, Shipping isn't a problem on the smaller items, just not sure if I'm able to deal with shipping an engine or transmission. Took me a while to figure out a box for the door panels. The car doesn't live at my house, its in a buddies shop. I actually got this weekend off work, so I will be heading down to the shop on Sunday to work on the car, and I will rummage thru the pile of parts and get back to you guys early next week with what I found. Mouldings - all still attached to the body work or doors, unsure of condition. What's the easy way to remove without damaging? Interior Handles - Definately removed from the car, but only 50% sure that I've still got them...may have broken trim around the handle as well. Interior Carpet cover - only about 50/50 on if I still have that...may have been bent during removal. Cat - still have it for sure, but I never took the car thru emissions, so I have no idea if its fully functional. The car ran smooth and didn't have any rattles. If anyone else has requests, try to get them to me by Saturday afternoon. I'm usually only able to get to the shop once a week. I won't take $$ from anyone till I've confirmed that I have the part and you've seen the condition. Once I do have $$ in hand, I almost always get parts shipped out that day or the next. Thanks!

I will look up molding removal methods in the morning and get back with you. | | | 12-31-2009, 05:49 AM | #7 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: asdfasdf Posts: 10,002 | Quote: Originally Posted by DaveKern Mouldings - all still attached to the body work or doors, unsure of condition.

The M3 swap I grabbed was just transmission, engine, & wiring harness, so there aren't any . Everything has already been removed from the car, stuff that was in OK or better condition was saved, but anything that was bent or cracked during removal went straight to the trash bin. You can see pics of the teardown here to see what I mean about the car being stripped : http://www.318ti.org/forum/showthread.php?t=28728 Dave | | | 01-02-2010, 09:32 PM | #9 | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2008 Location: Florida Posts: 229 | I need the rubber molding on the outside on passenger window. The one on the lower part that runs through the door, not the one around the window. Is that available and in good condition? Thanks! | | | 01-02-2010, 10:32 PM | #10 | Member Join Date: Dec 2009 Location: Ft. Worth Posts: 53 | since no fog lamps, do you have the black molding on the front bumper, passenger side, where the fog lamp would have gone? How is the inner seal for the hatch? worth taking off? Front-passenger side inner fender-well?

For the moment I'm also planning on running the stock bodywork, so fenders, doors, hatch, fender liners aren't for sale. Sorry guys, Dave | | | 01-03-2010, 11:22 AM | #12 | Senior Member Join Date: Mar 2005 Location: Portland Or Posts: 2,666 | We use the cheap Chinese import fenders and hoods for race cars, they are thinner and lighter...

LOL Dave | Where do you get those, and what kind of weight savings are you finding? I would love the delage kit or the one offered by Harry Hockley motorsports, as its a bunch cheaper and fairly similar. Dave | | | 01-03-2010, 07:36 PM | #14 | Member Join Date: Jul 2009 Location: New Jersey Posts: 93 | Ok this is a totally random part that I want and hopefully you will know what I am talking about. It is part of the center console/storage. It is a black square ash tray looking thing on the drivers side but toward the rear. If you open it up you should be able to unscrew it and pop it right out. Mine is broken and I simply want one that doesn't rattle when I drive. How much would shipping be to 07045? Thanks. __________________ -Brandon- | | | 01-04-2010, 07:05 AM | #15 | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2009 Location: Denver Posts: 373 | Hi guys, Good news: I do have the cat section and it looks in good shape. Its a bit long, so shipping might be expensive. LMK if you'd want it all in one piece, or if you want me to cut it at the joint before the cat (& leave rear flange intact). Bad news: I couldn't find the center console, so no parts available from it. I couldn't find any of the handles. Nothing relating to carpet left, including the covers for the edges of it. | | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
