                  fog light covers? then you can't use your fog lights.  driving while its snowing is the time when fog lights are like little miracles - no snow vertigo glare.

                    You've never owned an e36 in the winter have you?  These fog lights are little disasters waiting to happen.  BMW only used the most brittle of lenses and theres not an aftermarket out there any stronger.  It's not will they break but when.

                      i've never owned an e36 at all, thank god.

                      could some lamin-x help instead of full covers?

                          E30's are so great that everyone feels the need to rebuild them using the superior parts from the E36?

                              That's why I swapped my fogs for a $20 pair from amazon, ran a bead of silicone around the joint between the lense and the fog body to keep condensation out (the cheap ones seal like crap), and then stopped caring. If/when they break, not the end of the world and I'll get another pair with two day shipping haha. Its loads better than worrying about fogs that are like $70 a piece...

                                Just chiming in to agree that winters are brutal to E36s. Mine rusted like a SOB in one winter and pretty much fell apart.

                                  did you park it inside when driving it that winter? that's what really does them in.

                                      Outside. Had no other option at the time. This is pretty much the result:
