Part number for BMW Motorsport tow strap
Hi Guys,
Does anyone have the part number for the genuine motorsport tow strap? I\'ve tried search and trawled Google but to no avail. I know you can get these from Turner etc but I\'m about to put a bug order in through the UK equivalent to RealOEM so want to tag it onto that. Cheers |

on this IND build: http://www.topspeed.com/cars/bmw/201...-ar103644.html ***note the instructions on bimmerworld about cutting a slot into the tow hook cover to get this "strap on"

Does anyone know the differences between the BMW Motorsports one and the Turner one?

take a look at it, the turner one uses a metal thread to screw into the existing location. The bimmerworld one requires removal of the actual bumper and loops around the bumper shock.

Here's what the BMW Motorsports tow strap for our car looks like: The one Bimmerworld sells is more of a generic one (or maybe for the E46??) which requires removing the bumper. It's cheaper because it doesn't have that bolt that just screws in. And the BMW version also has a foam stopper inside of the strap that forces the tow cover out when you pull on the strap itself (which the turner version doesn't have).

This is funny. I've actually spent the last couple weeks trying to get that specific part # from BMW. Here is what i found out.....
The part number is correct. 7215 8321611 Retail is around $150 This is the official BMW Tow Strap. BMW isn't allowing any US dealer to import them. I've had three different dealerships try- paid for it twice. I even have a connection (my sister) in Germany that was going to get me one until I emailed Nate @ IND. You need to make a custom bracket for this to work on your car. Apparently, it is a big pain in the @ss. I then called Turner Motorsports and they have 80 of theirs in stock. Theirs is a direct copy of the one that came on their E92 M3 race car that they had imported. It bolts right in. They don't offer any slit on the stock tow cap. They just remove it and pull out the tow strap. I would just order it from Turner and be done with it. If you want one from Germany, I'm getting four. Two are already sold

With the parts that you post up, I'm sure the tow strap was a piece of cake to get lol

Custom bracket? Do you mean customize the plastic plug cover in the bumper? Why is the BMW motorsports one any more of a PITA to modify the plug than the Turner one? looks like both just require you cut a notch in the plug. |
