I have a BMW 2000 328i. I hit a deer the other day and was going to head to a junk yard and buy a new hood off of a 2004 325xi. I'm also in need of the inner tail lights (left and right side) for my 328i. I was wondering if anyone knew if the 325xi's inner tail lights would work on my 328i. The junk yard had a few bmw's but not many e46s so I'm having to pick from that particular car. If the lights won't work, then it's fine, I'll buy them elsewhere. I just thought I would ask/check since I'll already be there this Friday and it's much cheaper to buy from my local LKQ.

Welcome to the forum, Savannah.
Sorry to tell you, but NONE of those parts will fit your car: not the hood, not the lights. You need to be very careful buying used parts for an E46 - there were many changes during production. Also, watch out for differences between 2 door and 4 door cars.
I suggest that you go to realoem.com
This is a wonderful resource, unlike any other. You can enter your VIN number, or just the date of production and other car infor, and find out exactly what part number you'll need, and what it's interchangeable with.
You will need hood and lights from a 2 or 4 door (whatever yours is) E46 built BEFORE 9/2001.
