BMW 128i Headers

The word "headers" applies to many parts in the automotive world. While most people tend to think of the exhaust headers that help push gases out, there's another type of header in your BMW 128i. That's the header panel at the front of your coupe, which serves to support the headlight assembly and grille. Typically, you don't even notice yours as it's completely covered. However, you might catch a glimpse of one that's serving more as a filler panel between the grille and your hood.

Unfortunately, headers often get damaged – and they're particularly susceptible to taking the brunt of a frontal collision. Due to their intricate shaping, once they get bent they're practically impossible to properly straighten. That means that your headlights may no longer line up properly. In addition, any gaps visible around the panel affect your car's appearance and significantly reduce its resale value.

The good news is that it's easy to replace a header panel, since they're bolted into place rather than welded on. Often the job can be handled with a good set of hand tools!
