Don't even think of buying a used radiator for a 5 series (E34 or E39)! The radiator parts could be up to $1000 and the bodywork could be anywhere from $2000-$5000. My dealer replaces hoods and fenders for anything other than the most minor dings, apparently the BMW bosy parts are not too expensive (relative to aftermarket body parts).
