OEM interior panels: where to find?

[daklunk]

I've been trying to track down some interior panels that are either OEM replacement or OEM spec. I'm looking for grays and blacks for a 1984 318i (converting from tan : ) but i can't find a website anywhere that carries them. No hits on eBay, although I did find a molded dash pad for my badly cracked dash.

If you can help that'd be awsome! Thanks

classifids on bimmerfourms.com and also your local salvage yard for cheap...

Right, I've checked eBay, and I'll be going to the junkyard sometime soon. My project is semi-restoration, so I'm looking for stuff that's in somewhat good shape. I also just posted a "looking for" in the classifieds, but as a fail safe, I wanted to know of a company that makes or at one time made replacement panels. I know these things have BMW factory part numbers, shouldn't there be a place to buy them?

Thanks for the input so far...

BTW, has anyone heard if those molded dash mats are good? For $90 I'm thinking it'd be better than ripping th dash apart, but still, the quality control factor kicks in... LOL

Nothin? How about through the BMW dealer? (gags at thought of cost) Say someone wants the dealer to replace panels damaged during a theft. Does the dealer have a source or just tell the person to go to the junk yard?
