Attachment 72588Just purchased the plastic cover from STEALERSHIP...$27.37 for a plastic piece.
Now I have to find a place to paint this. I hope it doesn't cost a lot. I wonder if the paint shop where they painted my front bumper couple month ago will do it for free.

Damn, that car looks familiar--had to do a double take before I ran out to the garage!

Couldn't cost too much to paint that, especially if they have some left from spraying your bumper. If you had a good transaction with the body shop, they'd probably do it free or for next to nothing.

lol. Your hole is exposed.
P.S. - Why was your car towed in the first place?

Dear soliterry,
The towing company should buy you a new one!
If the car is towed and some parts are missing,
the tow company pays!
This should be close enough.

And I agree, your dealer can order one painted for your car and the tow company should pay for its replacement cost.

It is kinda embarrassing driving with my hole revealed.
Please provide me with the part number for this plastic cover so I can order from a local BMW dealer.
