Noticed that a piece of my Mtech grill fell off while driving. Where can i get a replacement OEM or Aftermarket one?

try getbmwparts.com, they are part of Tischer BMW and members here. There is no aftermarket grille that I have seen for the OEM M-Tech bumper. Might want to check on realoem.com first for the exact part # you need.

If it's the little 6"x6" piece just to the inside of the brake duct, I found that I would save less than $2.00 by ordering it online because of shipping. I picked one up at the dealer. They're still about $40 each

FYI

I lost one of those too, and when I stopped by the dealer to order it, they only had the new style available, which is "partially open". It's basically half open mesh, half solid like the original version. Looks pretty cool with it opened up a little more, but you'd need to lose both sides so you would replace both.

Do you have part numbers for the new style parts?
