All NA e30's with the large aluminum bumpers have probably suffered from
some kind of Corrosion. The corrosion is partially due to the fact that the
bumper shocks are metal which helps along the process. I know that on my
rear bumper I can see small holes as well as the white oxidization where
the bumper mounts are. 
I am sure you have seen an e30 running around before with no rear bumper!
