Compatibility
Fits BMW E30 vehicles equipped with the late-model plastic rear bumper, including select:

- BMW 318is
- BMW 320i
- BMW 325i

The listing identifies a general 1984–1991 application range because E30 production dates varied by model and market. For North American vehicles, the late plastic bumper was generally used on later-production E30 models, while early cars were commonly equipped with projecting aluminum bumpers.
Critical Fitment Requirement
This set fits late-model plastic bumpers only. It will not directly fit:
- Early aluminum “diving-board” bumpers
- Early European chrome bumpers
- BMW E30 M3 bumpers
- Vehicles with a different or aftermarket bumper configuration
BMW parts references associate the center section with vehicles produced from approximately June 1988, making the installed bumper style more important than the model year alone. BMW bumper reference
Euro-Style Configuration
This kit does not have openings for the side-marker lights found in U.S.-spec rear-bumper trim. Installing it on a U.S.-market vehicle may require the side-marker wiring and bulbs to be safely disconnected, secured, or otherwise addressed in accordance with local lighting regulations.
Installation Notes
- Remove the existing rear-bumper trim carefully

- Test-fit all three sections before final installation
- The trim sections primarily clip into the bumper
- Each corner section may also require a retaining screw
- Professional installation is recommended if the bumper has been repaired, modified, or converted
