My hood gasket has shrunk and is deformed around the rear corners of the hood. I've searched and do not find this part mentioned, either online or in my Bentleys. How much are they and what is the part number? Thanks

I'm guessing you are talking about #19 on the diagram in this URL: http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do ... g=41&fg=35

If so it presses down on a lip that runs across the back and down both fenders. You may be able to reposition your a bit or check with Brian on availability.
