OUCH! Ordering M bumpers through parts dept

CanadianGOLD2010 · 10-04-2010, 12:24 PM

Just got an email back from BMW Canada. I had requested the cost of purchasing the fenders for my 535 that I got in July. The parts are now available to order and will take 4 to 6 weeks to get. The kicker??? The cost is estimated between $9-10,000. This includes front, side and rear bumpers as well as trunk spoiler but seems really expensive to me. Also includes different fog lights. Has anyone ever done this for previous generation 5's and was it that expensive?

Holy cow ! The Msport package is only $3500 on top of the base.

When I was shopping for my 535 a few years back, I wanted to know the price difference between standard & Msport (after sales). I was also shocked at the price difference. Even the sales guy at that time said just order from factory and you will save huge $. The reason. Labor cost to take off the standard and put in the Msport.

You should also check out the US website, such as Tischer for reference quote. Tischer ships to Canada (again).
