New to the thread and need help finding a part.

Michael J · 08-16-2022, 11:38 AM

Hello, my name is Michael and I am new to the forum. I purchased a 2011 BMW 328i Cabriolet a couple of weeks ago and it truly is the UDM in my price range. 48k miles, no accidents and only one owner who took great care of it.

Here is why I'm here.....

$ days after purchasing this dream car i back in the garage and broke the right rear tail light. The light is fully functional because only the RED plastic was broken. Where can I find something like that and while I'm at it is there an OEM parts supplier that you prefer? Thanks in advance, Michael J

1. Look right here. #1. Regional Forums-SouthEast #2. Private Owners For Sale-Exterior cosmetic.
2. Craigslist-search E90 parts
3. Consider joining BMWCCA; LOTS of good info there. Post a WTB ad in Roundel both on line and the actual magazine itself. Also your own CCA people in your local chapter will have tons of good info.
Try to stay away from the dealer-there are so many good used parts out there.
