It should fit any e28 body style car. I got this valance from Germany. It is gold (champaign?) color and in a good shape. For a best appearance valance can be painted to match any color. For pictures please check following link: <<<<http://photos.yahoo.com/bc/bmw_535i_87/lst?.dir=/Euro+Valance&.src=ph&.order=&.view=t&.done=http%3a//photos.yahoo.com/>>>>>> During shipping from Germany, one side of valance got slightly bend which can be easily repaired. You can see it best on picture #5. For that reason I would prefer not to ship it. I am located in San Francisco Bay Area. Will deliver within 100 miles from San Francisco. I will consider shipping if requested. I am asking $200 (shipping is not included). For more questions and high resolution pictures please email me to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks for bandwidth.
