Center AC Vent trim

[Gsv77]

I had a clip on air freshener leak and corrode the trim around my center ac vents in my 15 F80 M3. Fortunately it did not get to the carbon fiber dash piece. Can anyone point me to the right OEM replacement part?

Thanks!

This vendor is very reliable and reputable, I have had many dealings with them over the years. Unlike your local dealer's Part's Department, they actually appreciate your business. PS: They also have a lot of M goodies here: https://www.getbmwparts.com/partloca...subcat1=219549

I actually think this is the part you're looking for for the center vent.

It's part number 64229218552. or item #14 in the pic

Thanks for the help, guys! I had part #14 in the diagram replaced today (the AC vent) but it turns out part #6 was damaged as well. I have the carbon fiber trim in my car and is seems they only sell the center, left and shift area cover as one unit and it is $1,100 +

This may help you. I think you're either looking for part number 51458057629 or 51458068609 but can't completely determine which one. You might be able to find the part number on the back side of the panel.

I got the part numbers from this site.
http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/show...diagId=51_8376 but don't know the difference between the two.?

They are both listed as: Trim f.inst.pan.carbon Fibre front pass. SCHWARZCHROM

This site has the first part number for $567 and the second part number for $460.
https://www.genuinenewparts.com/oem-...08-51458057629
or
https://www.genuinenewparts.com/oem-...02-51458068609

Still a good chunk of change but better than $1100.
Maybe your dealer could also tell you which part number is correct.
Hope this helps

You are the man! Thank you! 51458057629 appears to be what I need as it is the pre-07/2015 LCI production version! Thanks again

The LCI centre vent will fit the pre LCI cars as well.

I'm sorry that happened. I sold that car and switched to these!

Ok taking vent air freshener out of my brand new car.

Why would you have a air freshener in a brand new car anyway???
