Part number help

[Patcon]

I am trying to find the part numbers for the two plastic pieces that attached to each side of the plastic under tray
They are part #1 here on real oem:

https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/showparts?id=BT93-USA-08-2006-E85-BMW-Z4_M32&diagId=51_4963

They are greyed out and do not show in the parts list.
If I can find the correct part numbers then maybe I can locate a source for them.
The ones I have are damaged and no longer have any part numbers on them
Thanks, Charles

Welcome to the forum.
The link you have given does not seem to even have a Part Number 1 on the illustration?
Ok, forget that! Light shining on my pc and it is VERY greyed out.
I'm going to try and follow the link from Part number 6 to see if its the same on lesser models.

Found what looks exactly the same on a 3.0i page:

Sometimes have to be a little more creative on your realoem searches. Always worth checking out other versions of the same car.

NB. Although the pic looks the same, there could still be differences.
I wonder though if it's greyed out as it's not an M-specific part?

Anyway, good luck finding them.

They also show up using my Z4MC VIN in a RealOEM search...


...and clicking the part number, shows it's a common part across all e85/86 models...EXCEPT the Z4M ROADSTER...

Thanks so much guys!
I had to order those for a 3.0Si I'm working on too. I will have to compare them to the M parts when i get them. The oil cooler lines are attached to one of those. It will be interesting to see if they are the same. I have found from my past M cars, many of these plastic parts on the front of the car are M specific and can be quite expensive

Good to see you have the answer to your question.

Anyway welcome to the forum - now we'd just like to see some photos of your car!

@Mr Tidy
I will work on that

I could do with new ones for Z4MR too. Did you find a definitive answer on that? Is it the same part number for the roadster as it is for the coupe and non-m above? Maybe just a RealOEM error?

I am waiting on an order from BMWMiniparts. Once I receive it I will confirm fitment

 

[Patcon]

So I received my order this week from BMWMini.
Part numbers 51-71-7-012-721 & 722 are not the parts I needed...
They fit here


They are up high even with the kidney grills and keep the air flow through the radiator instead of out behind the headlights
The ones I needed are much lower and evidently help support the corners of the front bumper cover
I believe they are 51718046083 & 84. I ordered them and we'll see what I get. Hopefully they are not in Germany.
Don't be fooled by the RealOEM price of $47 each they are more like $175 each

Ah yes, the lower right and left splash guards: notoriously fragile, rarely available second hand, and frighteningly expensive new

You’ve quoted the “M” part number. The non-M parts look the same in the picture but have a different part number.

 

[Patcon]

I have the non M parts on hand for a 3.0Si I am repairing and they are very similar but different from the M specific parts. The non M parts are actually more expensive at $197 per side!

 

[Patcon]

So I received the parts and they look correct for the car


I hope this helps
