Hello,

My car had a little accident on the front that broke the active shutter motor and the grille ( the branch hit it directly ). Trying to find a replacement motor for it, but it seems it is pure nightmare to find the part number. Does anyone have any idea or some hints about what is the part number of that motor or where to find it ( BMW asked for $1090 for it and it is far too much based on what i see at the online stores and the 30 mins work you need to replace the grille and the motor that controls it )

The car is 530e 2021 ( facelift ) and it seems that the one before facelift is not compatible ( 51749854640 )

Thanks in advance!

Have you checked realoem.com?

A lot of people delete the active grills thinking it adds more cooling. That’s an option to save money. I personally trust BMW engineering.

Plenty of info on the net on how to delete and stop codes.
