Default Replacement Dumper insert

Does anyone know where I can get the inserts in the bumper of an xB2? Those little black plastic parts on the lower side that look as if they cover a front-brake air intake?

Since I'm not going to be able to build the sub box I want, I have another mod idea but I'd rather modify a replacement part.

Don't suppose there are any wrecked xB2's around yet and I'm not buying a whole bumper for a $2 plastic insert.

Thanks.

go to the dealer, tell them what you want. they will prob find a part number and order for you if you like.

i highly doubt many places are selling replacement parts yet since most of the inventory is prob being used to build new cars rather than relpace parts on existing cars.

New cars schmew cars, don't they know I'm up to something? I'll have a chat with my dealer.

I'm thinking about putting some white LEDs behind the plastic parts. I'd like to drill some of it out (so the lights shines through). It should look pretty stock with the LEDs off. It won't throw much useful light but should look cool. The only problem will be trying to match my headlight's color with the LEDs color.

Yeah but even then it's hard to color match. Neither HIDs nor LEDs are really the color temp they advertise.
