    Because I did not want the Napa brand shit and pay double for it.

        They may not have a minimum price, but they have a maximum. Ask me how I know....

          Been using these guys recently. $900 order placed on Sunday at my door step Thursday morning, and cheapest by ~$50 out of all the sights I searched.

            Cannot use the correct word for websites, uses "Teh" in username, drives an ix. Hmm, should we trust you? ;)

            As to the site, it has more than a few issues in just a few moments of browsing, does not support vehicles prior to 1984, only seems to offer OEM parts, and seems to think that standard E30 front rotors fit E30 M3s and early M10 cars.

              Haha, I guess spell check can only do so much. I always use the part numbers off of realoem instead of the website's search engine, no mistakes yet To my understanding they are a dealership with an online website, so only OEM parts. Then again who would buy anything else ;)

              Here is my receipt from bmwdirectparts vs. Ecs shopping cart. Mind you ecs is without shipping. Probably $100 difference after you add shipping to ecs.

                and they give oil filters away even, I just got a free bosch filter with the purchase of oil at the advance auto parts

                    This. I usually order small parts through Amazon because I have Prime, but yesterday I tried out the ECS free shipping. Got a washer fluid pump, exhaust hanger, hood strut, and radio delete panel for $45 shipped. Now lets see how quick they get here.

                      I'm spent a bunch on shipping from Ecs... I've been using FCP euro for cheap shipping but I'm going to start using ECS again because I'm all about that iX life.

                        FYI, NAPA Gold filters are some of the best you can buy. Made by WIX for NAPA.

                          Yup! That's all I used in NY...NAPA had to order one for me...So I grabbed a few extra items along with my filter instead of waiting on NAPA.

                            well that didn't last but 2 days, now its a 25$ minimum.

                            I had thought of ordering some small body plugs to test fitment.

                            Will just keep using Guten...

                              Only specific parts are part of the 'free shipping over $25'

                              Also I hate ecs because their 'eta shipping date' for all their parts is automated and doesnt pull info from bmw. So all those parts they say they can have in october? Yeah, they cant get them. But ecs will be glad to hold your money in limbo for a week or two before they actually admit to not being able to get the part. And when they can actually get a part that comes from germany, it takes weeks, compared to 3-7 days for bmwdirect/blunttech.

                              bmwdirectparts has by far the best pricing. and guess what? blunttech pricematches. So you can combine the best prices with the best service.

                                Just order from blunt. ECS is crap. The only reason anyone shops there is because of the pretty pictures and the illusion that they have stuff in stock at a low price.
