All the Euro brands have a pretty good following here. There are a few E53s still on the road but more E70s around so there should be some more E53s in yards somewhere. I'll have to call around and ask before I go hunting because there are simply so many car wreckers here.

Do you know if the spoiler was the same on all E53s in the same year? I saw an '05 4.8i in a car park the other day and at a glance it looked the same, but not sure if there's subtle difference that might get me stuck. If so then I don't need to find a 3.0i for some things and a 4.8i for others, I hope all the parts on a 4.8i will fit and I can go to town on it and be done.
