    Default Anyone know where to get OEM parts over the net?

    I just called the dealer to price cap rotor and wires...

    The cap is 123.83
    The rotor is 38.04
    And the wire set is 305.55

    $500 seems a little over the top for a cap and wires...

    Any sources to get OEM cheaper?

    I have had great luck with both of these, BMAs site doesnt list everything and you have to call.

    BMA @ bmaparts.com

    I've ordered probably 100 items from them. They're great.

    I have been looking at this place:
    http://www.bmw-auto-parts-dealer.com/
    You could always use your BMW car club card and get 20% off at the dealer.

    Get your quotes around, then email BMAParts. They'll work something for you.

    autohausaz.com has been the cheapest on quite a number of items, but BMA has tended to be a bit faster in getting items to me. I've been happy with both and if I'm able, I go with whats' cheapest.

    I've also ordered from http://www.buybimmerparts.com/ with no problems. They're on the east coast so I can get the items in a day or two. For some items they had comparable prices to autohaus and bma.

    Excellent. Thanks guys. I just remembered I've bought from vines automotive before and they're always fast and fairly cheap.

    I got a quote today from vines:

    Cap $75.00
    Rotor $17.50
    Wires $165.00

    Much better, for the same OEM parts!

    I'm going to check these other sites and see where they're at.

    BMA rocks!

    Just ordered everything for about $190 shipped! And that's next day shipping. That's only $30 more than the dealer wanted for the cap and rotor alone. Amazing.

    Well, I'll see what this does for my idle and post the results.
