I believe your response was more 'responded' i guess by quack.
Excellent idea. I did that for a lot of my parts on my old LS400. Didn't matter because I didn't have a warrenty anyways
All the companies I was talking too are off Saturday and Sunday. I'll get back on the issue on Monday. The general response I'm recieving is that the prices they'll do, they might not be able to post publically because AFE might not let them be a distributor anymore

I think we might have something guys!

Since we have so many guys that want intakes, I'm going to expand this on any BMW intake, as long as you are an X5world member. I'm keeping track of all this. If you aren't on the list, just copy the list and add yourself on it.
Remember guys, if you have any questions, just ask me and I'll try, or another knowledgeable member, will try to answer your question as best as possible.
