Hello!

My name is Gregory, I'm posting from Greece

I had an accident with my car (1996 Z3 1.8) an now I'm looking for one front hood (motorhaube) and one front Z3M bumper (Stoßstange).

I have searched everywhere on the web, and EVERYWHERE here in Greece, i cannot find anything, especially the hood.

If anyone knows any stores with used parts in Germany or generaly in Europe please post it here!
Thank you very much and i'm sorry for the english..

AW: Hello from Greece! Please HELP!!

Forget about this.

Nobody will ship the hood. Nor within Germany wether to Greece. It tried the same two years ago. Finally I have bought the hood as BMW spare part here in Austria. Moreover the prices for used hoods are fairly hight and in the most cases the parts already repaired.
Next problem is that the original BMW spare parts are not from the best quality. The parts are already 5 ore more years old and therefore show damages from the storage and transport.
I had to refuse 4 doors (my left door was also damaged) before I got one acceptabel (only a small dent). My hood showed also 2 small dents in the front area.

Maybe you can get a little discount from your BMW dealer - I got 20 %. So the price for the hood amounted to 657 €. Expensive but the only way.


BTW: The price for a used undamaged, unrepaired hood here austria was 550 €.
