Oh, bloody hell Matt, sorry to see that...
Have you tried BMW to see if they can source you a new one?
Re headlight; you'll soon source replacement new one on eBay; this is the one you need, just see if you can source it via Autodoc or similar as you may get a better price:

Cheers Dan. Yeah it wasn't ideal! But no-one was hurt, only the damage to the car so it could have been worse.
I haven't contacted BMW about the bumper yet, but it's a good idea. I just hope they don't want millions of £'s!
Thanks for the guidance on the headlight - it takes some of the work out as I know the type I need

Yeah; it won't be cheap unfortunately, but if they can source you one, you know it'll fit properly and it'll be primed, just needs painting...I haven't contacted BMW about the bumper yet, but it's a good idea. I just hope they don't want millions of £'s!

Fitting 2nd hand items like the Sport bumpers is something I'd never go for personally; the rare times that you do find them for sale, they're generally damaged and need a lot to fix them...
However, if that bumpers just cracked; it could be a possibility for it to be fixed/plastic welded etc; but only the bodyshop would yay/nay that and if it's viable/cheaper than buying/spraying a new one etc...
No worries re the headlight... Is it just the lens that's damaged or has the housing been damaged as well do you know?
