I got mine in a week. So I'd estimate 2 weeks.

Cloud · 02-25-2010, 06:08 AM

I have my paypal ready. Let me know when you are. Hope we can conclude this GB soon so the wait isn't too long.

bape · 02-25-2010, 08:22 AM

are the exhaust tips bigger than stock? or just a colour difference?

signes · 02-25-2010, 05:15 PM

Are the gill and grill PNs the same for E90s? I thought the side gills were different between E90 and E92/3.

AphiM3 · 02-25-2010, 09:21 PM

ill take grills and gills if they work for a US E90.

They look identical, just black-chromed, rather than chromed. Doubt they changed.

Grills will fit on the E90 no problem, but the gills are different I'm afraid. I don't think BMW produced any E90 (or E93) versions of the Edition.

Neil McRae · 02-26-2010, 03:32 AM

OK folks, sadly I have some bad news.

The supplier has looked into getting a hold of these in quantity and has advised me that its not going to be possible afterall. BMW UK are quite anal about VIN numbers and ordering parts against them and I'd literally need 20 odd VIN numbers to get these parts. I've got a call into the UK Marketing Director at BMW UK to see if there is someway to pull this off but based on previous experience I'm not holding much hope.

I spoke to two other dealers yesterday and they too gave the same feedback.

Apologies for the getting your hopes up chaps. I'll keep looking for a way to do this but in the meantime the Group buy is off.

Cheers,
Neil.

ChrisM3AW · 02-26-2010, 05:46 AM

That's a shame but thanks for trying!

Exactly what happened with folks trying to get CSL parts. BMW protecting the exclusivity of those who actually order the car. I guess I can understand this for the CSL but for the "Edition", give me a break.

Mack211 · 03-05-2010, 11:21 PM

Ya, that sucks. I would have loved to get the front and side grills. Seems like some vendors could match this chrome color and sell a ton.
