Which OEM BMW side skirts fit the 318ti? I am pretty sure that M3 skirts work, but I need to be sure.

For some reason I want to say it's the M-technic skirts from an E36 M3, 4 door.

Do you know if they are 2 or 4 door skirts? What they were originally on?

yes very sure they have the same part numbers and parts use (ETK) I checked also the M3 rear for the ti retails for $620....yuck! and I have yet to find it cheaper.

I got my M-tech rear from Blown M compact for $200. It had to be repainted and had that giant cut out for the exhaust but thats about it.

It was a used bumper, so he wont have any more of them. I was just trying to give you an idea of what you would pay for a used one.

I don't have any pics yet. But yeah it is a huge cut out. It worked out well because I got rear ended and needed a bumper anyway. I'll just have to get an engine swap and a huge exhaust http://www.happytogether.com/318ti/forum/smile.gif.

I'm sure everyone is aware, but just to clarify:

The M3 rear bumper cover does NOT fit the ti. The skirts do, the front bumper cover does, the mirrors from the SEDAN do (not the coupe/conv.), the coupe, conv., & sedan skirts are all the same (as is the wheelbase of all the E36's [except MAYBE the touring (wagon). Not sure about that.]).

The reason for the 'old' rear suspension in the ti is to save room for the trunk area. That's it.
