$145.00!!!??? Pass Side Frnt Bmpr Mesh..HELP!!!
Guys,
I've searched the threads for over an hour now @ work (duckin' the boss) for a clue as to where to get this on the aftermarket, with no luck, please help. I don't know how or when the hell it happened but I stopped to gas up and noticed that I'm missing the front bumper psngr side fog light grille mesh. During my search, it appears that everyone who's lost one, lost the psngr side, hhmmmm. Anyway, Beast looks CRAZY! Gotta fix it. Stealership quoted me 145 bones! I'll be the first to say that we choose to drive an elitists vehicle and therefore should be prepared to absorb the higher than average repair/ maintenance costs, but $145 for a piece of mesh? DAUUMN! Any advice/ help or bend over for the Stealer? Thnx guys.

Sounds about right. I had to replace my driver side when I ran over a blown out retread tire. Fog Light, plastic mesh, and temperature sensor mount cost about $625 installed...

Have no fear tho, I WILL be contacting you (soon hopefully) when I've recovered. Again, Thank you so much man, I'll stay in touch.

I hate when stupid ish happens like that. Last week coming home in the Acura a mud flap broke off a big rig, kicked up and smacked the front of the hood and the front right side of the fender. It left a small dent which I can live with and the black marks that it left I just rubbed them out with a light rubbing compound. I hope you have a sense of humor........... but if you had a E55 you would have been able to get out of the way
