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.

Noticed the CA plate. You can pick right up from their counter if you're local.

And even if you're not, regular shipping should reach you next day since you're in state.
