for sure ill let you know how the mirror goes Eddie. But as far as the exhaust goes, why dont you get it install at a muffler shop rather than going to a BMW shop? im sure it will be much cheaper. I was thinking about picking up the remus exhaust as well, but i will order that once i order the diffuser for my car. bavarian quoted me $950 shipped to canada, and so far thats the cheapest i found, because RemusExhaustShop wanted $900 + $120 for shipping.

Oh I forgot,, sorry, but I am including a new pic of mine for you to see how The Remus Quad I bought from Bavarian Auto Sport from Patrick Dowling for $899.00 + S&H look on my 04 530i with a new BMW OEM M5 rear bumper. He has 4 in stock ready for purchase and delivery right now, when I talk to him last Friday...

Hi Eddie,
Sorry I didn't reply earlier.
I bought my M5 mirrors a while back, for roughly 1100, painted.
I installed them myself, which was easy, took a bit to figure out a few things, but was easily done once you know all the components to it.
As for my M5 rear, I got the bumper for cheap, and the exhaust is a custom Borla Pro XS mufflers, with xpipe and vibrant tips. I might put some resonators on, cause the droning is a little annoying and I want it quiet now.
Nice new picture of yours. Get them real M5 mirrors, and you'll be all set on your car! =)

We both work closely to fix the US prices, frequently called MAP agreements, and to ensure a proper high quality image for REMUS in the US. In 2008, due to the USD downfall, MaxMoto and MimoUSA agreed to increase the prices to ensure proper profit margins for all dealers and to make this business venture viable.
That's great. Admitted collusion, price fixing and other anti-competitive, monopolistic activity. Ever hear of Section 1 of the Sherman Act? Even worse, now you are going to collude even further to drive Bavarian Auto out of the market becuase they didn't follow your price-fixing scheme?
wow. Not sure I would have posted all that on-line if I were you. Bavarian's lawyers are going to love that.

Edited, but still fail to see your point. As official distributors, we are entitled to fix the US prices. In 2007, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled in favor of MAP agreements and their enforcement.

Sounds like there's a lot of butt hurt people out there. 
If MaxMoto and MimoUSA are the official distributors for Remus, they paid a premium for that license. So they're entitled to sell their exhausts for however much they want. If you don't like their prices, then shop around. You get what you pay for, and in this case you're paying to have official warranty I suppose.
