Can't order from bmwusa.com

Everytime I try to order these performance black kidney grilles from their site, bmwusa.com, I receive this error "Sorry but an error occured. Return to merchant for checkout". So I press return and it just keeps loading.

Anyone else have a similar problem before? I tried like every browser (IE, FF, Chrome)...no luck

Thanks.

Don't order them from BMW USA and pay full retail. Check the seller forum. Many dealers sell the OEM parts at cost plus 10%.

Problem solved; money saved.

Oh I don't know, I usually get too afraid that it won't be a perfect fit like the last ones I had, and they began to chip after 5 months. I'll check it out though. Thanks guys.

All BMW dealership sell OEM BMW parts. BMWUSA.com and any BMW dealership sell the exact same products.

Wow, that's a great deal. East Bay BMW seems to work on the "cost plus 3x cost" formula.

Actually no I bought mine from a private party lol. Dealers around here are extremely nice actually. I just had the software updated around two weeks ago for free, and I didn't complain about any problems, just asked. I guess it really depends on the dealership. I must've gotten lucky because I hear of dealerships in other parts of FL and other states like CA that have horrible dealers.
