So, I've been trying to purchase the M Aerodynamic kit (51 95 0 409 693) for my Pre-LCI E90 for about a month now. Everyone I've tried to get it from says that it's no longer available and that BMW USA has discontinued it.
Why? I'm not sure. One of the guys at getbmwpartsDOTcom says that it's due to it not having a reflector on the front bumper, making it not DOT approved. Which would make sense for e92 & e93. Not so for the e90 & e91 as the reflectors are in the headlamps.
Today, I got a call from one of my local dealerships which I visited over the weekend. And the parts rep told me that he could still order it from Germany. However, the only way they would allow it was if it came on my car and I would need to provide a VIN to prove it!
I've tried eBay, CL, Dealerships, resellers, etc, nothing.
Id like to get the OEM kit. Not a fan of all the other junk that's out there.
Any ideas? tips? suggestions?
Got a 2006 - 2008 M Sport VIN I can use? lol.
Help!
