My Ride: E60 550i LCI M-Sport, Carbon Black
Default

Hi,
I have managed to get hold of some M5 wings locally for my 545 to put towards an M5 body conversion but can't seem to find the part numbers on the wings themselves, does anyone know where I would be able to find them on the actual wings?

Here is the part number details from RealOEM.com but can't see them anywhere - perhaps they are replica parts? but they are aluminum and I was under the impression that replica parts are made of heavier materials.

01 Side panel, front left 1 41357898315
01 Side panel, front right 1 41357898316

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance

For those on this side of the pond when you refer to "wings" you mean front fenders - right!

Pictures of the parts you located might help. If there are no "bar code" labels they might have come off. And I don't think they are stamped with part numbers except maybe on a hidden fastening tab - do you see any tiny Roundels stamped anywhere - that would also help identify a "real" BMW part. But sometimes fakes have those too.

Hi, yes you are right I am referring to the fenders!

They are 100% made of Aluminum so pretty certain that they could be genuine but the fact that they don't have BMW roundels or part numbers (like most other parts do) concerns me that they may be replica items.

I will upload pictures As soon as I get a chance.

Thanks
