Lol.. i don't know if there is such a thing without sacrificing quality and safety.. i'm sure you can find something on the forums or ebay for used or slightly used if you are patient.

I have to tell you that when i was repairing Bimmers wit my little side business i always begged people to stick with oem or oes. Any time they insisted on the cheaper aftermarket stuff you wind up regretting it. There is just nothing like OEM and that has issues lasting. Just ask any 545 owners how they love their oil leaks

Ok, so if I have an M5 I should go to the dealer and pay what, $500, $600 each when there are places that sell the same thing for less? I expected that the car costs more to maintain but why spend more than you have to. It's sad, a new owner comes here looking for advice, tips etc... and there are people that are willing to help or point you in the right direction, then you get the attitude from some that some people think BMW owners have. Simply, I am looking for ways to save a couple bucks when possible, I never even suggested that I was looking at Walmart for parts. Sad. Thanks to those that are willing to help though.

rockauto.com for oem or aftermarket parts.
faulknerbmwpartssource.com for genuine bmw parts.
ecstuning is a little expensive compared to those 2 that I mentioned above, but they are a one stop shop for genuine bmw, oem and aftermarket.
