$532 for OEM diffuser?
Is this labeled wrong? Doing some digging around and found this... but the price compared to the 135i OEM diffuser is absurd... $532.85 v $75.45

Doesn't appear to be a mistake, checked that p/n on other vendor sites and it's listed as high $4xx... guess that dual exhaust outlet makes all the difference, 7x the difference!

Unfortunately not wrong. Probably due to smaller build numbers.

when I had a evo x, the parts were crazy priced like that as well. If i recalled a stock enkei wheel was $700 each. on the used market guys would sell them between 3 and 500 for a set.

Thanks for the replies. I can see why most have gone with aftermarket diffusers with their 1m builds.

it is correct - it is expensive because the diffuser comes painted from the factory.

Is it color matched to the 3 body paint options? I would be highly surprised if that's the case... can't recall any BMW body part being sold pre-painted, maybe they would if it were a "generic" black (don't recall how this piece looks on 1M).
