My Ride: 2004 545i - Bone stock... help!
Default

I've got a few friends (and myself) looking to take advantage of cheaper shipping, and strong dollar/exchange rates for performance BMW parts from the UK/EU? Specifically, brakes, sprint boosters, stuff like that? Anyone have any contacts that would be good to deal with? Me and my UAE BMW brethren thank you in advance .

Nerweezy hooked me up with some killer prices for rotors/pads but god damn the shipping is BRUTAL from the states . It's like 1/3 of the cost!

Teddy rocks, the prices are sick with the current exchange rate! My buddies are happy, I'm still sad - He doesn't carry the rotors I want . Anywhere else? I'm looking for drilled/slotted rotors for my 545i to replace OEM rotors (no caliper upgrade).

Thanks for that, Kav. He'll be getting some business from us .

I've read too much against drilling the rotors manually. Would prefer to have factory slotted. The EBC ones look great but they don't make for my car. It's the same story eerywhere, not for my ride... Very dissapointing.
