I got some parts from BMR today another rant

[BigKriss]

am I happy, yes and no. Here's the order. It took about 7 weeks to get here (boat - cheap shipping) after it was sent. I was getting worried it would never arrive and even asked Scott H to give 'em a call for me. I paid aus$87 in duties and gst. I'm now thinking most orders over aus$250 will attract duties.


Yeah baby, 540 calipers front and rear


e34 oil cooler lines - sweet

There was no friggin oil cooler with the order. It went "missing". Since I live in Australia, should BMR send me one out with them paying the shipping costs, or whats the deal? I have yet to e-mail them to tell them about it. I just want some feedback from here. I noticed it did say two packages on the invoice, so I will have to see if the oil cooler was sent seperately. I don't know how many packages where sent. I don't know why they would send 2 though.

Sometimes there can be a weight or size limit on an individual package so they split the order up into two or more packages. This means that these two packages may become seperated in transit and not actually arrive together. It doesn't necessarily mean it's lost, it may turn up later. If it doesn't then you either have to rely on insurance (if the item was insured) or the goodwill of the sender if they believe that you didn't receive the item and for the sake of good customer relations, choose to rectify the situation by sending another one. Not really enforcable however if they refuse and you have no insurance. Good luck!.... At least we all know where to go for a beer and to talk Bimmer **** next time we're in NSW!

they don't look much like the e34 m30 oil cooler lines that I have.

they don't look familiar to me, maybe v8 or v12 lines to the oil filter housing, i could be wrong but they don't look long enough

[uscharalph]

I am still very wary about used parts which are involved in the performance of the car.

I tried to look for numbers on the oil lines, its very hard to read, however i read 1702922 on one of the lines and item 6 came up it the etk link I gave you. I pretty sure now it's items 5 and 6. they sure look similar. thanks for pointing that out to me gentlemen. i'm doomed.
