Front bumper lip

I'm not sure what the part is called but I have a pic below. I have my car towed and the strap came off of the back tire and my car rolled into the tow truck cab. The only damage was a small dent in the front but it's really bothering me. I took it to a buddy that is a mechanic and he said it would be cheaper to replace it than the labor cost at a shop to try and get the dent out if it is even possible. I was wondering if the JCW front lip would fit on my MCS?

Would really help if we knew what year make and model and what options you had so that we could help you find the right part.

But yes that part is plastic and not an easy fix. much easier to replace and cheaper as well.

S or Non S or JCW we need to know these kinds of things to help you out as there are different parts on different models and options.

RealOEM http://www.realoem.com/bmw/select.do is just one of the places to look to see how it all goes together and get part numbers from..

in your case I think it might be this one (#9, p/n 51112756497) if it is an S or JCW


or this one if a non s (#9, p/n 51112756495)



But as it looks like an S upper grill in the picture i would say it is the upper one. But some people have replaced their non S Grills will S Grills so I can't be 100% sure

I would be good of you to put your cars info in your signature as i have done in mine and many others have done.
