Nope, and the part that usually goes is the cabby specific part (the very bottom section below the black plastic trim piece). can only be bought from bmw dealers and last time I checked they were about £250 per side. Could be worse, I believe e24 wings are now a grand a side.

I have just asked my local bmw garage for a price on these and they quoted me around £190 per wing.
Not bad really I thought.
