you have two options.

1; go to the dealer or cotswolds on here.

2; try hadrians for pattern panels.

Or buy a good used one, they come up quite often. If you have A/C you need a different one (rare) with an extra aperture.

As mentioned above, post up a 'Wanted' ad in the relevant section on here.
A good second hand one in the same colour is going to be loads cheaper than a genuine BMW or pattern part as you will need to factor in spraying costs!
