Lower Grille Mesh broken...

Hello Forum,

I am coming back here after a quite unpleasant incident... The lower grille mesh on the car snapped after hitting something hard. It's still attached but in 2 pieces broken down the middle (I'll try to attach some pictures tomorrow).

I am wondering whether a replacement can be purchased anywhere on the Internet? I've searched Bavauto and whatever else I could have found but NO luck. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.

Thank you all
Tom

I had similar problem on my 3.0si and bought the grill from ECS Tuning

I think this is your part number and follow this link

I know it's been a looong while but the car was away for winter so no work was done.
As advised I was able to get the mesh and all parts at ecstuning. They have been super helpful and it seems they are well stocked.
So again, thank you all for the advice.

I'm still however looking for 1 part that was damaged thru all the scrapings of the underside of the car.

It's number "27" on http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...60&hg=51&fg=15
Unfortunately, the part number is not listed there so I can't do any further searches. As you can see it's that rubber splitter that's underneath the car.
Thank you all for any help, again :

You're actually looking for part number 23 in that drawing. Here it is on BMW Parts catalog and the part from ECS tuning.

Go to exterior grills to see this; I chose the RaceMesh black powder coat finish.
