Which sites/stores offer the best prices?

I need misc. wear items like an Intake Bellow & Door Lock Actuator.
Always looking for the best deals on OEM filter replacements.

Plus, I would like to buy the usual E36 cosmetic mods -- HID Headlights, Clear Tails, M3 Bumper.
Is DDM Tuning the best place for this?

I drive a '98.5 Schwarz II 328is.

You can give ASP Tuning (http://asptuning.com/new/) or understeer.com (http://www.understeer.com/) a try for aftermarket parts.

+1 for Tischer BMW

DDM is good if you want mass produced stuff. Personally I like BavToys, but you do a search over at bimmerforums and you'll find a lot of hate threads about them. Personally, Ouri has been nothing but professional and I will buy from him again. The problem is he has stuff for all levels: super cheap and super expensive. You get what you pay for, trust me. Get the good stuff now, and it won't bite you later.

OE parts, I like Pelicanparts.com. Wayne will ship smaller boxes marked with lower costs and "gift" if you ask nice. So will Ouri.

Aftermarket, my two favourites are Turner Motorsport (Doug is FANTASTIC, and knows everything there is to know abou this products) and Bimmerworld.com. Nothing but good experiences with both of them.

In Canada, your buddies at Tunerworks are about your best bet. Check with them first on aftermarket stuff. By the time you factor in duty, shipping, gst on US stuff, it's often just as cheap to go get it from Tunerworks, and you have the benefit of local warranty and advice.

Good advice scort, however, Tunerworks is amazingly overrpriced.

Depo tails from them? 300. Online? 100.

Eh, maybe some of that crap is different. But when I was shopping for suspension stuff, they were within $20 of the US guys on my H&R kit, rear shock mounts, plus all the other stuff I got from them.
