Front Bumper & Nearside Splash Guard

Chaps, I’m after a standard front bumper for my 2004 3.0I. I also need the nearside splash cover which houses the outside temperature sensor by the looks of it?
It’s been on my to do list for a while now as the bumper was pretty scruffy when I bought her & isn't really repairable. Unfortunately a few weeks in I hit a high kerb with the passenger side front corner & split the splash guard :headbang: . Looks like part no. 51717012725 from the photo & it's bloody expensive for what it is :o . I could perhaps stitch it at a push as it wouldn't be seen.
In an ideal world I’d like the bumper in Sterling Grey but I’m happy to respray if necessary as long as there's not too much prep work required. It does need to have the headlight washer holes though. Been considering this one https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-Z4-2003-2009-Front-Bumper-Primed-With-Headlamp-Washer-Holes/401561625257?redirect=mobile on fleabay but thought I'd ask first here. I’m also happy to travel & collect within reason, I’m in the East Midlands. Or, if packaging is not too much trouble I’m happy to pay for postage/courier. Any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi, thanks for that I'll keep it in mind but for now I've been offered a bumper in Sterling Grey which I'm going to look at this Thursday. It'll save the expense of a respray but it doesn't have the headlight washer holes. I'm led to believe that the inside of the bumper has the outline for the holes & hopefully I can cut these out.
Still after the splash guard, looks like I'll be trying a repair on that.
