Unhappy Bonnet Replacement On e36 - HELP!!!

Hi everyone.

I need to replace my bonnet on my compact. Artic Silver.

I found an Artic Silver bonnet of a saloon e36 and want to know will this bolt straight on as a replacement.

I have heard mixed things and need to know. Some people are saying that a saloon bonnet will not fit.

Others say that a saloon and touring bonnet will fit straight on - no problem. Only a coupe would not fit as its longer.

Please help as I do not want to spend lots of money buyinga new bonnet and then spraying it.

Thanks

From the A-pillar forward, the ti is the same as an E36 saloon (sedan). The bonnet (hood) will fit.

Thank you so much.

I have just bought the immaculate bonnet for £35.00.

I have learned now that I should always buy original BMW parts.

All the best!!!
