Replacement tail light cover …

My 2018 M4 Convert has a scratched rear lens cover.

Can I just buy that or do I have to buy the entire light assembly ?

Does anyone have any part numbers for what I need please ?

I have not. The scratch is very faint and does not seem deep , do you think it will work ?

If so, what do you recommend ?

Depending on your level of OCD (if scratch repair doesn't work), you would only need the inner trunk lamp. Part #2 in the link diagram:

Cheaper than new light. A detailer may be able to look at it and advise.
