Is front bumper strip to replace license plate holder on '02 325i available?

Is the front bumper strip to replace the license plate holder available yet for 2002 325i? Is this the same part as 2001 models, or did it change? What is the part number?

Thanks.

You should be able to order it from you dealer. They should have all three part numbers. For no plate, american plate, and Euro plate. I have seen the parts cd at the dealer and all three are on there.

Thanks for the info.

I've got a feeling that it might be the same as the 2001 model. That p/n is 51 11 8 195 304.

There is no reason why BMW would re-design a new mold just to manufacture a different bumper strip. :)

Since the 2002 sedan restyle includes a different bumper cover on the 325i, I was wondering if the moulding strip would be different. I'll check with my dealer.

It is the same part #. Just did it several weeks ago. The bumper looks much better

My dealer gave me one.
