    I Need Plate Delete/Impact Strip

    Hey guys. I can't find any plate delete strip for my E38 for a reasonable price. Can anyone send me a link to somewhere with a good price, or sell me one of theres? I really like the way it looks and I need one.

    Thanks.

    Any cheaper option like maybe the $20-$40 range?

    That strip is a rip off. The price has quintupled for E38 deletes and $140 for that piece of plastic is ridiculous. These have gone from $30 to 150 in the last five years.

    Prices will continue to rise with supply/demand. Buy as many spare parts as you can before they are too expensive or NLA.
