If you need certain sections from the owner's manual I may be able to photocopy them for you.

Front/rear bumpers are one of the pains of owning a euro bimmer. I researched this when I was shopping as I came across an M635 that needed front end work. I priced the entire front bumper assembly (parts only) from Bekkers at $3000+. Of course, these are for brand-new OEM parts. If you're lucky, you'll stumble across a used set or someone parting out but they are rare and go quickly. Don't hit or get hit! Exhausts are another sore spot - with so few 6series out there the aftermarket isn't bustling with options. B&B sells a stainless freeflow that most find somewhat loud. I have an Ansa as well and without a cat (straight track pipe, not even a center resonator) it scares the wildlife away. I was hoping Supersprint would make one for the M6 but they just came out with E28/E24 non-M systems last year, with no mention of an M-system. Several people have had custom fabrications done. The only other stainless option I've come across is from Raven up in Canada. I forget the person's name but he was a designer for Stebro before they sold out. He left and started his own company under the name Raven. His custom systems are popular with the Canadian club racers and he already has designs in production for the M6/M635.
I can get you the name of a dealer if you are interested.

Hope this helps,
Devin

: Recently bought a 85 Euro M635. Looking for the following and would appreciate any suggestions:
: 1. Owners Manual -

: 2. Wiring Diagram - Have a '86 US635 Wiring Diagram but are not sure if it's applicable since the US lacked the adjustable driving/fog lights.

: 3. Mechanic in NY - I'm located in Westbury, NY. (Don't trust any of the local repair shops to tune/work on the engine.)

: 4. Parts source for F/R Bumpers

: 5. Exhaust Suggestions - Lacks a Cat and has a Tiny Ansa exhaust. Looking to add a CAT and SS Exhaust in an effort to try to pass local Emmisions.

: Thanks in advance
