Just wondered if anyone had done work on their car or had a crashed front end and had a a spare one.
never hurts to ask. Next step is a scrap yard if anyone can help.

Thanks
Did you check in the mouth of the Pheasant?.... they normally run with mouth open!...

I also have the same problem on the right side, but Iam a bit used to it it shows less. My friend rolled his X5, not really rolling though but looked like it did, he went thru a dead-end road at 212km/h, and ran thru the bush swaying between trees, little hills and shrubs but the time the car came to a stand still, it was like it came from a war zone. He called me to salvage some parts (we had same model and color) the Fog Insert was on the list... but alas by the time I saw the damaged car (though impressively still standing!) we couldnt even identify which part was from the bumper! just little black pieces all over the trail!

But you can also go to Garages that sell "used parts" my problem is that its very rare I come across accident damaged X5s,... either people drive carefully or they just dont get into accidents...
