I was wondering if I can order the chrome kidneys on the internet somewhere for less than the 175 euro my dealer is charging for them. My car is coming within 3 weeks now and I would like to have these installed when the car arrives.

Any input would be kindly appreciated.

Hello 535d,
I just told my salesman upon finalizing the deal to install the chrome kidneys and of course he went along with it at that time since it's no big deal.
It will be hard to ask for it now but at least you can try.

Getting mine on January 4th so can't wait...

I would go the OEM way. 175 is a lot of money but you get bmw quality and if they ever get rusty or something you have a good warranty. Ebay sells fakes (ebay.de) but they look very flimsy..
