NOTE: I've put together the W&N Group Buy as a way to gauge interest in W&N's offerings. Based on the results on the Group Buy, I will consider purchasing W&N products and offering them for sale in the U.S.
Thanks!

Aaaaargh!! Son of a @*%#!!!!!!
I JUST bought a bunch of used parts for more than they are selling them for new.
47.50 euro for a new front fender panel! F*ck me!
Cool idea, I might be interested in the hood pad.
Curious. Are these shipped to the states prices? And then extra to ship to my door?
The prices provided are from W&N in Euros converted to US Dollars before any shipping. The consolidated order quantities will be sent to W&N.Originally Posted by vtbimmer
Based on the final itemized prices and the shipping quote from W&N to California and an estimate of the shipping cost from California to your door , I will provide an all-in shipped price for your entire order
As such, it will not be economical for East Coast buyers.

I'm in Portland, Oregon. Think i'll save on shipping?
Aww I don't have the Facebook. Euro corners would be slick
I think so. You could send W&N an order form and see what they will charge you. You can use that as a basis to compare the group buy price you will receive from me.
I'll see about adding select items from the regular E21 catalog.
It's really to sign up for facebook.

Have you spoken with W&N to see if you can get a bulk rate discount on the parts, or is the idea just to combine the shipping from Germany to CA with hopes that they can combine packages to keep shipping costs down?
I may be interested in a drivers side rear wheel arch, but I'm not sure if it would be cost effective since I'm in Texas.
There may be some lower pricing on parts, because WN has told me that pricing will improve with higher quantities. However, there is a limit to which parts pricing can go down. There is a greater opportunity for savings on shipping charges. For example, if you were to buy lower euro valence parts, shipping can be 50% to 80% of the value of parts themselves.Originally Posted by utjeffc
You can send W&N a request for a quote, and then participate in the Group Buy in order to get a Group Buy Quote. You can then compare the two and decide to 1. Buy direct, 2. Buy thru the Group Buy, 3. Not buy at all.
I hope that the above clarifies things and encourages you to participate. If you send me WN's quote to you, I can guarantee to at least match the price or provide up to a 10% discount on the total cost of the order shipped to your door.
Werd. I'll have to think about getting some injectors...unless it would be cheaper elsewhere.

Ian, Jeff - let me know if you want order forms.
Hey, I'd be interested in being the receiver as long as I get a real spreadsheet of who gets what and the shipping is covered.
I still drive daily with no commute...
The Hazard is All, Praise the Hazard!
Is this available to residents of texas as well? I'm not really west coast or east.
Could I also get an order form?

It's all about spreadsheets, baby!Originally Posted by midlifebmw
But seriously, can you PM me your email address?
Sending shortly. You'll get the best of either. My educated guess is that you'll do better as part of the East Coast buy.Originally Posted by dictator

Quotes are going out tomorrow.
Quotes have been sent as of 2:40pm PST. Please check your emails and send payment as soon as possible so I can turn around and send the funds to W&N.
Thank you!
Order has been placed with W&N as of December 2, 2011. Next update will be when W&N ships the order.
Thank you!
The shipment arrived at my doorstep this morning. I'm inspecting all the items one by one for any damage. Your items will be repackaged then shipped to you by Monday at the latest.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you for your continued support.
Wanted to mention i got my huge box of stuff in last Thursday, been too busy to thank you, Jimbo!
You're welcome, Trevor!
