Hi guys!

Looking to replace my worn out windshield cowl Part 51717017022. If you have one in good condition, please PM me. Must be willing to ship or meet up around the Greater Toronto Area.

Thanks

I have one from a car with 55,000 miles on it. Car was always garaged and the cowl is in great shape. Can send pics if interested. What are you willing to pay as I am not sure on going price for used based on mileage. Thanks.

Price for new is around $218 I think. Also might consider investing in some of the plier thingies which pop off the windshield wiper arms.

Mine looks TERRIBLE. It's flaking on both sides and is an absolute embarrassment to my otherwise beautiful machine. I'm probably just going to have a shop do mine in the next couple months, I'm scared I'll get frustrated and break/bend one of the wiper arms. ;D

Yes, but unfortunately, I live in Canada. I can only find this part from the stealerships or from the States. Canadian BMW dealerships sell parts for double the US price (including the currency conversion). And, if I were to buy it online from the US, I'm stuck paying ridiculous shipping, taxes, and duties which end up being more than the part itself.

Yes. I have the wiper arm removal tool from when I replaced my windshield. Mine looks like crap too. I just want something decent to use. More of a want than a need but just throwing it out there in case I find one on here

Shipping always kills it. USA always has some amazing deals, but the currency exchange, shipping, tax, and duties kill the whole thing.
