Re: WANTED! black e53 parcel shelf/ luggage cover
Stick a post in Introduce Yourself section and state the car you have, facelift or pre-facelift as the parcel shelves are different for them.
And welcome to the forum!

Re: WANTED! black e53 parcel shelf/ luggage cover
Shelves currently on ebay for both prefacelift & facelift. Breakers likely to have same too, though if buying used from anyone always check/verify condition as best able.
Seems daft you are doing avoidable legwork to save a few quid for the car seller. If it were me I would.............
a) Ask dealer to source one, supply & fit same. ( or cause it to be posted to you if you're not local to them). If seller is actually a main dealer then this really shouldn't be an issue.......indeed for me it would be condition of sale. I suspect when you say dealer you may mean independent trader but either way these things aren't hard to source new or used.
b) Ascertain list price from BMW and get same deducted or paid to you then go shopping for same new/used as you wish.
