M3 Front Control Arm\Tension Strut OEM Number?
hi all,
i'm looking for a part number for the complete retrofit kit. so far i've found this kit only listed on tischer http://www.trademotion.com/partlocat...catalogid=4462 but as i live in europe shipping will be long and complex. do you know if there is some bmw oem number for the whole kit? |

I got complete M3 kit from Harold from HPautowerks www.hpashpop.com. It was less expensive than from the local BMW dealer and it was here (Czech Republic) in one week.

Lots of parts are much cheaper in US than in Europe. I live 200 km from Munich and even with the shipping cost it’s cheaper to get the parts in US. I got wheels and tires from California for better price than here!

As for sourcing these parts - I also ordered them from Harold at HPAutowerks as he has all of them assembled in nice bundles and you don't run the risk that you forget one of the parts. Also, there are ways to reduce the VAT/customs charges and as there's no VAT in the US the parts may actually be cheaper than ordering them at a BMW dealership. You can just phone your nearest dealer, get a quote for all the parts and then compare to Harold's prices with shipping (shipping to Europe of a big chunk of these parts should be around 100 USD) and your customs duties. Hope this helps! Alpina_B3_Lux
