aero kit lip quote - too high?

for the just the front aero lip for an E92 sound a bit high?

Front lip - $385.00
Paint - $200.00
Install - $200.00


I got this quote today from a dealer here in Atlanta...I thought it was a bit high..

Your thoughts?

And some bolts... but you can do it yourself or find a shop to do it for 1 hour labor (so $80-$100); otherwise the quote is good.

+1 Easy enough, just make sure its not too cold or the glue will not adhere to the stock lip.

sounds close to right install shouldnt take over 20 minutes. So that couls lower thepaint, bring it to a shop for $100. The part order from Wholesaleparts@morristownBMW.com they will lower that cost maybe 50 bucks

better get a blowjob for that much


from what i hear, the price for the lip itself is normal, but chargin 200 dollars for something that would take YOU 30 minutes max is dumb

not sure about the paint as ive never had anything painted, how much does that usually run somewhere besides the dealer?

buy it unpainted, take it to get painted, and install it yourself



the local salesman here in orlando told me it would be 4500 for the whole aero kit and said it was impossible to order just the front lip, thats one of the reasons (besides getting it a month sooner) im driving over 100 miles to get mine

yea, he also questioned me about why i wanted a loan when i could pay for the car in full, and then laughed at me when i told him how much i made in investments saying that hed never heard of such a thing

thats how you lose a sale

Hey so they dealer I am picking up my car at told me that they could not order just the lip from the Aero kit. I was wondering if anyone knew a dealer somewhere in California that would order just the lip for me or do you think if I found the part# my dealer could order it?

No kidding - 385 for part, 138 for paint and install. Paint only was 125. The BMW paint shop said that install time in the book ws less than 15 minutes. Some folks here are getting ripped off with some of these quotes.

The install is literally a 15 minute job, as mentioned. You could do it yourself in that amount of time.

So I think I pretty much got ripped off but I was in a rush. I paid $550 just for the paint on the front lip. Going to install today.
