No it's not mate. They are different. 95% sure.

The 320i ones' Bosch number finishes with 083

The 325i ones' Bosch number finishes with 082

I think this is correct.

you can polish them dude, I did the one on my sport, 25 minutes to strip it all off, 10 mins with the scotchbrite pad and another 10 with some metal polish and she was like a mirror dude. Shame I never bothered to stay on top of the bling finish though.

guess I like my oily bits a bit grubby and industrial looking- or I'm a lazy fcuk :lol:
