If yours is a 1982 you need a panel for the facelift model Aug 79-onwards.

Difference is the 2 pressed rounds on the pre facelift model, where foglights can be mounted. Those can easily be flattened and shaped, but the bigger issue is that the rear lights of a faceliftmodel are different. Same shape, but the pre fl has them deeper sunk into the metal.

Like Jeroen says, thats what you need. You can fit any panel, facelift model. Only difference between them is the holes fot the exhaust, for a 323i you need 2, rest one.
It's the man next door!
