I don't think they are ti specific, but I am not sure. It is on the list of applications. If you order I would call just to make sure they are for a ti. If you do order post up some picks. I have always thought the Reiger twisties look amazing.

Yeah i like those,they are just different from what everyone else has on there bmw's. When you open that link it says at the top of the page-- Rieger BMW E36 Compact Side Skirt (Left and Right) but i would still call them if you're going to buy them.

I went on this site to see how much the rear spoiler is and they don't sell them,just the upper window spoiler.

I've got the Reiger front spoiler and rear spoiler to mount. If they look like they need the Reiger side skirts, I will order them.

I'm bringing this thread back to life because I was wondering if anyone can confirm that ti "specific" side skirts are the same length as any E36 4dr or coupe. (didn't mean to hijack the thread) I just need a definite answer. Thanks!!!

The side skirts and the front bumper are about the only E36 pieces that aren't model specific. The same skirts will fit any E36 model... well except the E36/7 and /8 (Z3s).

Even the 4dr ones? I would think that they would be longer?

Nope even the it (station wagon). If the wheel base is the same (as it is) then they fit. the roadster/coupe have a shorter wheel base, so the drive shaft, parking brake cables and side skirts (aside from the obvious body shape differences) don't fit.

Same part number for M3 sedan and M3 coupe...
