So I usually get my parts from BavAuto. But I was just looking today on realoem and I see a price of ~$65 for a hub then I go to Bav and they quote me ~$120. I can deal with some markup, but what am I missing here? Does realoem/bmwfans just list prices really low? Is it safe to use them as a base? Where do you guys get your parts? Thanks

I see that you're from BC, Canada so that makes it easy. I use this site:
http://www.autopartsway.ca/autoparts2/index.cfm?fetch=part~ID=1991~BMW~325is~241439
It has reasonable prices for most parts and really good prices for maintenance things like plugs/filters. Shipping is free (and fast!) for orders over $75. I bought a bunch of oem maintenance bits and balo/textar brakes and both of my orders came in two days. I like how oem oil filters are $5 which is cheaper than one for a domestic car at wal-mart.
If you're looking for stuff that you'd find at a junkyard google a place on Vancouver Island called bimmerparts. They're a specialty bmw wrecker.
