BMW E21/28 Wing Mirrors & Door handles & smoked rear lights

[tomcantfly]

hi, I'm after a set of chrome e21 wing mirrors, 4x chrome door handles and also a set of smoked lenses for the the rear lights for an E28

or any other cool bits of styling parts for an E28

thanks

The chrome door handles for an e21 are actually e12 items and may be available from dealer or ebay. Chrome door mirrors are pretty much the same as 02 mirrors, so try Jaymic.

Ok thanks for the info.

What do you mean by 02 mirrors?

Thanks

[Mark]

Mirrors from a BMW 1602 - 2002. The small 2 door that were replaced by the e21.

[tomcantfly]

Oh ok, was thinking you meant a 02 plate 5 series to start with haha

I'm struggling to find any, anywhere, not even at ridiculously stupid prices

This may be a long search

Thanks for you help and info though

Have you tried here www.bmwe21.net/forum ?

[tomcantfly]

I've had a look on the for sale section and nothing there.

Felt a bit cheeky joining just to post a wanted ad haha

Surely they wouldn't mind? Lol

[Mark]

It's well worth joining for advice, as well as wanted ads etc. There's also a Facebook page. In fact, there are a couple relating to e21's. Another good group to join is the E21 Legion. They too have both a dedicated forum and a Facebook group. Between the 2 groups you can usually find most things.

Have you got a thread here that covers your cars?

[tomcantfly]

I own a e28, which is what I wanted the e21 mirrors for.

I've never got round to creating a thread for my cars. I've always owned minis and a few random classics every know and then but decided I wanted something, classic but more modern in terms of comfort and technology compared to a mini. Plus my minis aren't practical with having a small child haha I've only owned the e28 for 3/4 months so its still new to me so joining a dedicated e28 thread or similar would probably be beneficial to me

[Mark]

I'm not sure e21 chrome mirrors would work on an e28. They'd look a bit small. Have a look at e24 chrome mirrors, or better still, period correct Engelmann mirrors.

[tomcantfly]

Do the e24 mirrors fit the e28? I was told it was the e21 mirrors.

[Mark]

It would depend on the years. E28 mirrors are black plastic and pretty similar to stock E21 items.
