I believe any e36 nose panel will work. The options are: pre or post 1996, and with headlight washer cut outs or not.

I thought it might have been different too.
Thinking about it some more it makes sense since the headlights are not unique to one body style but the corner lights are.

mate, dont know if you seen my post but I think i need a new nose panel aswell but i wernt sure of the exact name of the part.

I've included a pic so you can see (not my car) exactly whats been broken.
At first I thought Id have to replace the whole bumper but im not sure now.

If you could send me the name of the part and where I can get it/how much it costs would be useful.

If anyone ese knows of the name of this part please reply with info.

Thx
