[xbeemere30x]

pardon the french.. but i just had THE WORST nite.. i was drunk so i let my friend drive me home.. and as u guys know i have a bad clutch.. bought a new one just waiting for its arrival.. but the clutch blew in the middle of the road on our way to a club.. i was completely and utterly PISSED OFF.. out of being drunk and mad i kicked in my right tailight.. my rear drivers side door and the rear quarter panel.. im working on gettin the dents out.. but i cant find my extra tailight that i had in my garage.. i have one from my old 84 318 does anyone know if that will fit my 88 325? i think they updated the lights that year.. if not then does anyone know where i can find one online.. none on ebay.. thanks

Sounds like;

1) you should not have been out drinking if you need to save money for a clutch,
2) you have an anger management issue,
3) you have an alcohol problem and drink to excess,
4) your garage needs organizing!

I believe the '88 tail lights were the redesigned ones, they slope on the side next to the lisence plate. I'm not sure if the '87s did that or not. But I do know that '86 and earlier will work.

Also, I know you probably realize this, but taking your frustrations out on inanimate objects, typically only hurts your wallet.

'87 was the last year for the old tailights. In '88, they changed to the newer ones like vlad said. Here's a pic of my '87, and you can see it has the old tailights.

where's a perfectly good baseball bat when you need one?

oh wait, wrong topic.. on the bright side, if you did have a bat handy, you'd be even more pissed now. hopefully the fix wont' cost too much, and hope yer back on the road soon.... just uh.. not mad and erm... drunk and uh... while on the road...

my friend, i know your pain. about a year ago i spun out on one of those cloverleaf onramps...it was raining and really slick. i pulled a 180 and the back right corner got MESSED up. i couldn't sleep for days. i even named my car and then there was a big dent and rust and whatnot. anyway i took a hammer to it and everything's peachy but the paint's still scractched off mostly. it's a 2500 dollar fix so i just gotta wait...5h!t happens bro..

Yea, e30's are SO tail happy. Thats why they put dsc on newer cars.
