Not a lot of paint needed for one set but the problem is to color match BMW factory there is a minimum amount that needs to be mixed.

This approach works best if you know a shop well that deals with a lot of BMW. Drop off the set and ask them to paint it when every another vehicle of the same color gets painted. Many have that done and shops usually don't charge when its done this way and you know them.


why don't you just paint the ones you already own and save the $40 needed to buy new OEM ones?
