Need to purchase under lip!

Sorry for not putting this in the General FS section but figured the GTS parts won't be there. Took my GTS for tints this afternoon and the morons parked it right on top of a cement block and cracked the orange under lip. Does anyone have some advice on where a new part can be purchased immediately? Thanks

They are on back order to Germany from all North America I believe. Took a couple weeks to receive ours that needed new ones.

My front lip was damaged in transit from germany to canada. So my dealer had to order me a new lip. It took 2 weeks to arrive from germany and it comes unpainted.

Also the lip is over $2000 msrp.

I took my damaged lip to the bodyshop to get fixed and they say it's not a easy fix as it's made of carbon fiber and with foam in the middle.

so they didn't own up to it? I would go back and confront them, don't just let them get away with it that easy. Its a good 2k for that front lip from BMW.

Ive also had my fair share of shops doing bad work or damaging things. So I know very well how frustrating it is. In fact I have to take the car to get the windshield taken out and reinstalled again because the first shop did such a shit job on it. This is after me telling them I want it perfect.

Dude, horrible to hear this. Hope you can find the parts you need, seems you might have a few options.
If this tint shop doesn't own up to it, you need to seriously out them on this thread so that others can stay away.
That is a special car and cannot believe they would imply you just did this on your own and blamed them.

Please keep us posted, good luck.
