Thanks Robert and Felix for the links. It looks like the glass only option is not in stock anymore. Don't really want to pay 225 euros for a bit of glass!

Thanks for the update Pat and good to know BMW are still producing them even though they might not fit properly!
I'm going to give BMW a couple more months to see if they can delivery my original order and, if not, I might be tempted to go for a carbon fibre if funds allow.

Thanks guys for the info. I did a quick check on ebay.de and saw some other body panels but not a front wing. I'll keep an eye out though.
I might just buy a new one if they're still available as I was expecting the price to be much higher than £445 to be honest.
Thanks again.
