    Does Lemforder sell the aluminum arms as well? So the ALs are stronger than the steel ones? Hmmm... interesting!

    Lemforder is the OEM for these parts and I put a set from BMA on my car a couple of years back. They had the BMW logos ground off but were otherwise indistinguishable from the original parts (with BMW logos) that I removed. Must be some kind of branding agreement allowing Lemforder to sell into the aftermarket but not with the roundels so they grind them off.
