Sourcing S/H Parts
Discussion
Afternoon all,
after an old boy pulled out on me on Xmas day my E39 540i Sport has now been appraised and declared a Cat-C, currently in the process of haggling the offer (£5k initial) but mind now turns to repairing the old battle bus seeing as the salvage retention cost is so reasonable.
Seeing the cost of parts I need to try and source some second hand items, seeing as it'll need spraying anyway.
Hopefully with a little polish the headlight will go again (can't see any cracks or broken lugs), just a scuff on the glass but I need a new front bumper, wing and single kidney grille...the bonnet should repair (hopefully).
Where do I go to source some second hand parts - or even new pattern parts? (all the bumpers I've seen so far are either for SE's or M5 knock-off's, no sport ones)
Damage isn't too bad so makes sense to repair?
