What does a new oem Nose Panel go for these days?

[pecsok]

Just saw one on the 'bay for 800 starting. Wonder if I should bite or not.

here's one for $800.00

[eastsidebimmer]

LIST PRICE for FRONT PANEL Part Number: 41331835659 = $883.00 and you don't have to pay shipping from your local BMW dealer.

Most dealers should offer 10-20% off for BMW CCA Members

$800 starting bid is too high, seller wants to reclaim investment.

Seller, if you are one here--sorry.

Wow! You still aren't able to read!!!

If you read the original post CAREFULLY, you'd see that he said he saw the bloody thing on the "'bay" for 800.00. That's the same auction he was referring to in the first place, you daft woman.

I would say that if it is pre-reproduction period- original production then it might be worth more than what is available now. The new ones do not fit as well and require a fair amount of mucking around get just right. I have a new one and the quality is not as good as the originals. The inside panel (radiator support) has wrinkles and the thing will require tweeking to fit just right. Others including Matt McGinn have also mentioned this in recent posts.

i have a new one on my car and its not great. the passenger side grill doesnt fit correctly as theres a larger space on one edge than the rest. im sure nobody will notice but it bugs the hell out of me. i also noticed this on another full blown resto on this board. same exact thing

I got a replacement... there are wrinkles... there are blemishes, it cost we $890AUD... they were $1200... I got a good deal.

It was better than what it replaced.
