If you are going to purchase an M3 all you will do is cheapen it by adding these imitation products. This is what ruined the import industry please dont let it happen here.

Regards,
I completely understand, but with all due respect, the prices of those products just make them not an option. I understand that they may "cheapen" my $65k+ car, but do I really want to spend that much money on a part I see as disposable? No, I do not. I also think that these replicas serve the purpose of keeping the prices of the Original Designs in check.

Not trying to start a war here, but my car is leased. I want easy entry and head-ache free exit, while more or less solving the task i set out to complete. Also, frankly I dont see those prices as "fair".
