what are these parts?
What are these rubber parts from around my radiator? I had the radiator replaced after a minor accident and these were left out. The garden hose is in the pic for sizing comparison.

I've never ever reinstalled them! IMHO, I don't think they matter. I'm sure there's an engineer that thinks otherwise, but I never got it!
A Bimmer Nut for sure: '04 530im (current daily driver), '97 m3, '98 323is, '99 Z3, '01 740iL, '06 330cicm zhp, '02 R1150R, '69 r60, Owner/Operator of www.Bimmer.info and www.BimmerNut.com
And I still maintain: '90 535im (sold to daughters best friend, one of my favorite bimmers), '92 525im (daughters other best friend now drives this one).
I don't think it's those parts, #11 and #14. They're still in their, I believe. The parts I have are curved, and there's three of em.
Heheheh. Alright. Into the dumpster they go. Thanks!

I think they get curved with heat. That's partly why they did not seem to me to want to be reinstalled. I figured they'd get loose and sucked up into something and cause issues. So yes, to the garbage they went.
