I circled the piece in black im referring to on the bottom of the door in the image. This piece under the front door somehow got badly scratched on my 2020 750i but I can’t find what it’s called. Can this strip be replaced?

It’s called the “Air Breather” It is designed for Efficiency and Aerodynamics. I’ve never heard of it being Replaced so I’m afraid it cannot be replaced I think it’s part of the Door but I may be wrong.

It can be replaced. There are three OEM options as far as know:

- chrome
- gloss black (m sport)
- cerium grey (M performance)

You can also get a carbon fiber replacement aftermarket.

Thanks for your reply. When I google air breather nothing comes up. This was the difficulty I was having trying to identify the part

Thank you good to hear it can be replaced! I have the m sport. I tried to google the part but do not see anything relating to the piece I’m referring to showing up.

Anyone able to find or source black trim pieces for the impact strip (front bumper) and the rear side fenders trims ? Trying to black out but don’t want to wrap them .
