Need a new radiator and radiator fan?

I managed to hit a traffic cone the car next to me knocked in front of my car and now my radiator is bent in (but not leaking fortunately) and my fan is cracked.

I've been looking around and see plenty of radiators online but when I see the fans they are selling they look nothing like mine or what's listed on realoem.com

If anyone can point me in the right direction i'd appreciate it. Also, is this a complicated fix? I'll have no problem pulling the bumper but is there anything else I should watch out for?

thanks, i'm just seeing a difference on every site I get to with the fan looking different (likethe r52 fan) I just don't want to order and have it be the wrong part. I'll search around the site a bit

Personally I would order those two parts from parts.com ($221 for the fan and $195 for the radiator, not affilated, just a happy customer that has ordered many BMW&MINI parts) or Morristown MINI.

But there are plenty of other sites that sell OEM parts!
