Righty,

I'm gonna get a replacement BBS LM, but now for the other damaged bits.

By my calculations (on one knee trying to look under a lowered Z4), I need a new driver side wheel arch liner, and the corner plastic that sits in front of it, and also a new under tray (front).

My questions to those in the know:

On realOEM:

I need part 6 from here, says discontinued?

http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?model=BT52&mospid=47797&btnr=51_4960&hg=51&fg=75

Is the under tray in 2 parts? I can't see underneath enough to see the join, but I want part 8 from here:

http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?model=BT52&mospid=47797&btnr=51_4963&hg=51&fg=75

The thing is, I can't find prices for these parts on realOEM, and BMW services was "so busy" today I have to call back monday... :?

The front bumper is heavy scuffed on the front lower lip, considering a Z4M swap while I'm at it, its only money and its going on the plastic, all depends how much the underneath plastics set me back....

I think there will be some extra pieces needed as there's some loose bits of plastic behind the bumper too (??)

All in all, an expensive lesson on not bumping a curb! :cry:
 
Part 6 will simply have been replaced with a later number not listed on RealOEM

The undertray is one piece the goes from lower lip of bumper back to the alloy engine undertray

There's another bit you might need - the vertical air duct that fits between the wheel arch and the undertray to guide air into the rad.
You won't know until the bumper is off
 
Strange, from the pic on realOEM, the undertray has two parts, part 6 and 8 in the 2nd link.

The duct may well be toast, the corner is pretty much smashed underneath.

I'm considering a Z4m bumper swap at the same time, if its gonna cost me big bucks, might aswell make it look better! :evil:
 
I'd have to check but I think 8 mounts higher up and it's just 6 that's the undertray.

If you for an ///M bumper you'll need the brake ducts too.
 
Its part 8, that attaches to the bumper, and via some corner pieces, to the wheel arches thats fooked.

It isn't on the parts list on realOEM, so dunno its number or price.

There's an M bumper on ebay but its highly priced for a damaged one, and the guy isn't giving me enough details about the damage etc for me to hit the buy it now... :? Some people dont seem to WANT to sell their items.
