Hi - I need to buy a few small body parts for a BMW X3 F25. What are the best recommendations for online parts websites to buy from?

Thank you!!

There are many BMW dealers that have an online store. Parts are typically 20-30% off MSRP while the parts counter is typically 20-30% above MSRP. As mentioned, getbmwparts.com is one. My usual go to is https://www.bmwdirectparts.com/

Good recommendation. If OP needs body parts as he states then I think places like FCP Euro will have little to offer in this regard.

Third party vendors typically have pricing for Genuine BMW parts right around MSRP. That's better than the dealer parts counter but worse than dealer web storefronts.

If it is a part that you just have to get from your local dealer, consider joining the BMWCCA. Most BMW dealers will give you a discount on parts off their standard pricing. Sometimes it can be substantial.
