Considering this interior kit for my 04' 545i SMG. It would look stellar with my black interior and titanum silver exterior.

has anyone bought one form RoverActive on ebay.

take a look is 8 bills a good price?

Roveractive is a legit seller.

I've done a groupbuy for ACM units from him awhile back. As for the pricing- he's pretty cheap, but you should definitely check around first. Is Garri of Newport any cheaper?

They may do OK on a group buy, but I have compared Roveractive ebay prices against Garry on a couple of things before and he was much cheaper. For example Roveractive has steering wheel trim listed buy-it-now for $89.99 plus $10 shipping, but Gary only wanted $39.98 plus $9 shipping for the same thing!

So bottom line is it's probably worth checking around. Try Newport -- Garry is great to work with and has good prices.

I agree -- would buy it in a second if it would fit my car. Not that many LCI's out there yet, but someone should be all over it for $200.

Rover-active is super expensive. They charge retail or over retail for their stuff. This is the reason Rover Active will not post part numbers, if they did you could compare on real oem dot com to see you are getting the shank. I get a 25% discount at my local dealer and my prices are similar to Garry's. Unless you get the same 25% off I would use Garry.
