BMW PARTS GROUP BUY Thoughts please!!!!

Hi Folks,

I am looking to run some group buys for Genuine OEM BMW parts and would like some feed back from you guys n gals as to what parts you would like to see being offered in group buys.

Some examples I can think of would be as follows :

- Windows rubbers for E36 coupes
- BMW Alloy centre caps
- Perishable exterior items on older BMW models like scuttle panels
- Brake dust guards

Etc etc, hopefully we can get enough feedback for items to start running some group buys on genuine parts.

I look forward to hearing your thoughts and opinions.

Hope this helps,

That's a great idea! Would be interested in wheel caps and bonnet/ boot badges

yep,bmw e36 mudflaps,still getting people after 50 euros for 4 used ones,cant be much more new surely.
tow eye covers,still haven't organised you to get me these.rear electric window switches that fit my motors(bought the mechanism and wasn't sent the switches and any switches I have got don't fit)
door rubbers,my e36 and e39 are a bit worn with rubbing against getting in and out of car.
that's the few bits I can think of but you know me I always forget other bits.
them little clips that cover the screws on bmw engine covers,
door clips to keep the trim on,used cheap ones and they only hold good for a while...
oem jacks,,my e39 broke the last day.

E46 saloon drivers door trim that always bubbles up near the mirror.
I'm sure plenty of folk would buy one at the right price as they are hard to find used.

Same as myself but no boot badge

And door clips for door cards.

Sounds good to me, I need a couple of bonnet/boot badges.

All those parts cost buttons at the main dealers!

Wheel centres might be a big uptake, bought aftermarket and regretting it since :(

Definitely centre caps, bonnet/boot badges, and door/window/boot rubber seals. They are usually worn, and even if they aren't too worn, it makes the car look really fresh to have them new. It's all about the details ;)

Edit: Would take a full set of mud guards and door card clips as well actually!

Edit Edit: Missing one of those little covers that go over the screws for the engine as well, and as stupid as it is, it's wrecking my head and woud like to get it! ....OCD or what?! :D

Door seals are stupid money I hear at the dealers I hear!

Hi Folks,

Getting some good ideas here for some group buys, keep em coming and thanks to all for the input it's much appreciated :).

Hope this helps,

E39 Front splash guards may be another one, there's not too many E39's that have them intact.

Gear knobs are always a needed bit too, also with wheel caps the small M badges too they are very cheap from memory.

Floor mats another, and maybe some M3 engines :D:D:D

i think the famous E36 air hose must be included

Yeah I'd be down for some bits and pieces and some trim pieces for sure.

I'm not sure if you seen our request for a group buy on z3 shifter kit?

Generally you best running with the below I feel,

4 pots - Z3 1.9 shifter €56.33 + delivery
6 pots - Z3M shifter - €67.00 + delivery

These can be placed on a larger order going into our EU suppliers are will arrive in 7-12 working days from date of order. By placing these on a larger order shipping is reduced quite a lot. Otherwise single orders incur a minimum shipping fee of €19.88 from our EU suppliers via DPD.

Hope this helps,

Could you do a kit with a refreshed plastic bearing thing etc?
How many would you need to consider a group buy for this?
I'd say we could get 5 together easily?
I was planning on asking you about htis soon.

Thanks ;)

Hi Dean it's the intake bellows for E36's, these are a common point of fail over time and split as Shaun has shown.

Hope this helps,

Hi Lucifer,

Yes thank you I have seen this and updated it :).

Hope this helps,

Ah now I get it, only knew it as the intake boot. Cheers :)

Hi Folks,

More ideas please for all model BMW's planning on running the next group buy once the shifters are in and out to customers. Was thinking of the E39 front splash guards as these always seem to be cracked or damaged in some way.

Many thanks,

Hi there,

Shall send these to you tomorrow, supplier has the shipping weight for the front splitter way to high so have sent an email for revised shipping quote. As soon as I receive this I shall send you a price.

Hope this helps,

Any update on this, may be in the market for some wheel badges, e46 jacking point plastics and possibly a solenoid valve (if the old one breaks on removal, fingers crossed it doesn't)

are you doing this anymore?also been on the schmeidmann site and some bits are half price,how long does that sale last.want few bits but this is good value at 75 excluding delivery for e39,postage on its own makes it expensive

Would be interested in a few e46 parts such as;
-Wheel badges
-wing indicators

Hi guys,

Generally most aftermarket parts like service kits, pads, discs, styling, interior styling and some tuning products are 5 day.

Genuine OEM items which are generally not in stock are a 12 working day lead time.
