Help finding OEM replacement reflector

ChuckGm3 · 05-25-2011, 01:57 PM

I recently hit a couple birds while on a leisuirely Sunday drive...

The result was a missing left corner reflector...

But I can't seem to find the part online so I can order a new one?

What gives? Can anyone help?

Update... I called the dealer, told them what I was looking for, and they gave me part # 63147839043 which seems like it SHOULD be correct, however, when you look that part number up on any diagrams, it's the reflector for the e90 sedan which is on the edge of the wheel arch... So I was thinking that would be fine, maybe they just have the wrong diagram, but then if you look up that part for the e90 sedan, it has the same part # too, so clearly this is not the part number for the Coupe's reflector.

Why don't you purchase painted reflectors from IND. They will match your body color (blue) and they are hardly notceable. I think it's better than getting those ugly orange things IMO

I was going to say I will send you mine, pulled and replaced for color match ones but you got it sorted it looks like.
