    Need pic of X1 engine bay 28i

    Hi, we just picked up a sightly used X1 and there seems to be some missing plastic on the driver side shock tower. It's a 2014. Can someone take a pick of their engine bay of the same generation/model?

    It's a snake drive 28i, or whatever, it's got the n20 in it. The plastic piece will be lower on the shock tower near the frame rail. I can see the tire through the hole so I know there should be something to cover that. Maybe someone knows what that is called. Can't find anything on real oem. Any help is appreciated.

    Front fender liner probably missing if you can see the tire from the engine compartment.

    It is the wheelhousing cover, there is a front and rear section. You may be missing the rear section looking down at the shock tower towards the drivers seat. The rear section part number is 51 71 2 990 089.

    The Front section is part number 51 71 7 290 159.

    Just a guess but I'm thinking since he only posted 1 time 2 years ago he probably sorted that out already.

    Yes, I did see that however i decided to post what parts are required to sort it out. Many people start threads but never reply with a resolution.
