The whole reason I bought a CPO car was to avoid issues like this with used cars. Any input is appreciated.

Not likely. CPO does not involve pulling off body panels to inspect if they were repaired/replaced. What probably happened is that the original owner damaged the car and paid out of pocket to fix it (using cheap non-OEM part). The repair didn't appear on Carfax and BMW is non-the-wiser.
BUT...That said, being that you only bought the car 2 mo's ago, time is on your side. Bring is ASAP!!!!
