What does a 1M Diffuser Sell for?

I've come across a 1M diffuser and just by looking up the part # 51128051910 it says it costs about 380$ through the online bmw dealers. Seems a bit high? Or is that the actual cost? Trying to see what I should put this one up for sale for.

I was thinking of doing the same. Know anyone good? From what Aussie said I think it was quite a quick job to remove, but that was with the car up at a garage.

I am not sure you can use the stock bolts again, you will probably need to break them to take the diffusor out and they won't work again, that's what I remember from Aussie and/or Papethova, better ask them before you start the job.

The 1M diffuser I have has tabs like the 135i diffuser so I think you just pop it back in. Then add the screws after.

Actually not... The 1M diffuser has lugs which need to be cut out then replaced.
