You can get copies on Amazon for about £28. Not OEM perfect, but not £100 and they don’t fit too badly…

Thanks for that, do they fit well enough that they sit relatively flush and don’t let water in?

Just about. Make sure you add some dots of glue to the seal it comes with so its flush with the plastic and you should be fine.
Alternative is the Bigwinn/Enuff_Zed option and a secondhand OEM unit if available.
 
Well I recently took a punt on a copy at £17.30 from eBay and I have to say it fits extremely well. No leakage.
But yes, you do have to be careful with the seal as it flops about a bit and is easy to get a twist in until it's tightened up.

Thanks for that, do you have a link to the Specific one you bought please? as I’m guessing there’s Loads on there

Cheers, ordered one… I’ll let you know how I get on :thumbsup:
 
Given in an ordered a new one from Cotswold BMW, £70.08 inc vat and delivery - cheaper than the eBay sellers and not much different to a couple of tired grills I’ve seen second hand.
