no plans... they are a pain to remove without damaging. Only reason we have these as a local customer wanted a set, we were able to remove his without damaging them so had them done.
Not trying to start a flame war, but why do you overprice the parts you have like crazy? You could go to the junkyard, get these pieces and pay at most 50 dollars to have them powdercoated. Shipping is like 5 dollars for tiny pieces of thin aluminum.

"Over price your stuff? Thats a rather general statement, dont you think?
We dont have time to go to the junk yard, for us to do these it takes away from other revenue producing tasks. In addition we stand by our products and the quality of work speaks for itself.
If you would like to go to the junkyard and have them done to sell for 75 a set you are welcome to it.
No one is making anyone buy these, they will sell or they wont. We can always install on the next project.

Why don't you go ahead and take this to PMs and leave it out of Levent's for sale thread?
I've bought many parts from Levent, and he has always been fair with his price. He'll go the extra mile for a costumer. You obviously never dealt with him before. Most people around here only drive e30s, because they're a cheap way into bmw ownership. Levent is a true BMW enthusiast

You wouldn't speak to your momma with that mouth and you sure as hell shouldn't speak to your Papi with that mouth!
If you took economics ever, you would understand the actual cost of producing a part for sale, in particular something like this which has several steps to get to the end result. for instance:
Take a trip the the junk yard: 1-2 hours depending on the drive and the haggling
Clean up the pieces: 1 hour
Drive to the powdercoater for drop off: 1 hour
Powder coat: $50.00 (just cause you said it)
Drive for pick up: 1 hour
Take pics: 15 minutes
Create post online with pics: 15 minutes
Box the parts up: 15 minutes
Pay for shipping: TBD based on location
So what's your time worth? I count 4-6 hours right there plus shipping. And that's without any profit! So unless you time is worth nothing, this is a fair price for the trim.
So in summation, Levent is your Papi and you can go EAD. The End.
