Hey all and need help with my door - 435i F33

Hey everyone, recently bought a F33 435i having come from a E82 123d. Loving it so far!

I need some help though within the first week someone has dented my driver side door and is beyond smart repair. Wanting to get a salvage door as it's cheaper than getting it fully repaired.

Would a door from a F32 Coupe fit my F33 Convertible?

If not. Could the window from my F33 be added to the F32 door to make this fit?

Hope this make sense Been trying to get a solid answer for weeks.

Also my insta is 'F33_Aish' feel free to follow my journey Also need some F33/F32 accounts to follow need inspo!!

Cheers

Based on realoem the base door is the same in F32:

Window is not the same, and that may apply to some other related bits as well:

I guess you should be able to swap anything that does not fit from your door to a F32 door. Especially if you can get one that you don't need to paint then it makes sense.

Hey, thank you so much for this. I was on there earlier but just couldn't figure out the part numbers.

So in theory if the door shell from both F33/F32 is the same then technically I can just take the bits from my current door into the f32 shell door to make this work? Hmmm

And yes I've found one in the exact same colour for literal peanuts!!!! But it's coupe door

Yes that should work. Some of the trims and seals are different and if they are glued then you may need to buy new ones, you may want to check their prices first if that is the case.
