BMW Exterior Trim, Body Parts, Aero and Styling for BMW 3 Series E30 (1984-1991)

Robust chassis-mounted skid plate with multi-piece structural reinforcements. Compatible with M20, and M5x/S5x swapped cars that have the low-hanging E34 swap oil pan!

We've all heard the E30 horror stories of smashed oil pans and engine damage that follows. You have a few options, either you drive extremely carefully and hope nothing happens, or take the proactive approach and buy a quality skid plate.

Our skid plate offers a range of features, including chassis mounting, structural reinforcement, compatibility with 24v swaps, provisions for airflow, and acting as a splash guard. Whether shielding against everyday road hazards or ensuring stability on the track, this skid plate serves as a comprehensive protection plan to keep your E30 secure and road-ready.

In addition to its protective role, the skid plate contributes to the overall quality of your vehicle by enhancing chassis stiffness. By providing structural reinforcement through its tubular steel and A36 steel supports, the skid plate becomes an integral part of your car's framework. This added stiffness can improve handling and stability, ensuring that your vehicle responds confidently to different driving conditions.

Featuring two 1.5" outer diameter A36 steel supports that mount directly on the chassis rails, these serve as front mounts for the provided A36 tubular steel "halo," which securely mounts to the front subframe. When bolted together, the uprights and tubular halo double as a rigid front subframe brace, providing an additional bonus.

Developed on both a stock 325is (M20) and an S54 swap car, our engineers dedicated time to ensure compatibility with both standard and 24v swapped cars. Constructed with tubular steel and 1/8" thick 5052 aluminum, our skid plate comes as a comprehensive 4-piece kit with included hardware for easy installation and incredible durability.

Product Development:

Our E30 chassis-mounted skid plate was designed, engineered, tested and quality inspected by our Research and Development team at Turner. Nothing but the highest level of precision and quality through leading-edge product development technology including FARO laser scanning for reverse engineering and quality inspection, SolidWorks 3D CAD modeling, rapid prototyping utilizing our in-house 3D printer and rigorous long term product testing.

For many E30, E36, E28, and Z3 owners, the factory antenna is often a source of frustration. Many have stopped functioning entirely after forty years post-production. What's more, if your antenna is stuck at full height, it can ruin the clean lines of your vehicle’s rear end. The typical solution is a cheap grommet from the hardware store, which can lead to water/debris intrusion and more headaches down the road. Over the years, we've noticed the increase in demand for this modification, in addition to the issues associated with other, less optimized antenna delete pieces. Hours of research and development have culminated in a perfect-fit antenna delete plug—tailored specifically for your vintage BMW!

Our high-quality solution is engineered for durability, providing a sleek and watertight finish that restores the aesthetic of your car’s rear end while eliminating the need for an obsolete and likely disfunctional factory antenna.

Key Features:

Eliminates Factory Antenna: Solves issues associated with malfunctioning or broken antennas. Watertight Seal: This prevents water and debris from seeping into the trunk area, protecting against rust and corrosion. Enhanced Appearance: Streamlines the look of your BMW’s rear end for a more refined finish. Simple Installation: Installs in seconds without any tools required. Robust Construction: Made from quality low-density polyethylene for long-lasting durability. Precision Engineering:
