This is a genuine BMW cap, part number 51 71 7 896 829. The number stamped on the part is 51717896829; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 7896829. You will find it on our Interior Body shelf, under Other Body equipment parts.
It fits the E46 sedan, coupe, convertible and touring (320i, 325i, 330i and M3, 2001–2006), with the M54 or S54 engines.
BMW draws it on 4 diagrams, among them BMW Performance strut brace, Carbon (03_0135) and BMW Performance strut brace, Carbon (03_0136). BMW's catalog calls for six of these at each place it is fitted. It also comes in BMW kit Strut brace (0429377).
