caliper + Alternator = great weekend
what a great weekend  my brakes went out on me last night & when i went to check em at my andy [FONT=verdana,geneva,lucida,'lucida grande',arial,helvetica,sans-serif]shop[/FONT] it turned out to be the  r(drivers). so am gonna get both calipers, pads done, and rotors turned sometime this week. so when i was on the freeway going home, my battery light went off, after 15 minutes of driven i noticed the radio turned off all brakes/ABS/ traction and etc lights went off and within seconds the X turned up.. ya try to pull into the far right lane from a busy freeway within gettin hit  but i managed to get it safely and got it towed home.. my friend came by to check it out and said it my Alternator wat a great way to have everything go wrong all at once ... anyways i been doin a search here but i dont seem to get anywhere. does anyone know a place or a website where u can get an Alternator Replacement at a reasonable price.. i did a search here and its all $390+ and core on top( total of $500+). am sure some of us here got some deals from somewhere. if u guys dont mind can anyone share there info. i would really appreciate it

A good friend of mine started selling parts for old 2002s and now has a nice little business going selling BMW and Porsche parts. Great guy and very competitive pricing.
Parts: Blunttech.com - OE and Aftermarket Parts For Your New or Vintage BMW And it helps if you know the part #'s you need, you can browse BMW's parts system here: RealOEM.com Online BMW Parts Catalog *the pricing on realoem is dealer list and usually quite a bit higher than his prices.

I'm not sure you'll be able to find it for less than the $390 you were quoted. I just checked with Autozone - they usually have very good pricing, but their price is $454.99 plus $150 core for $604.99 and that's a remanufactured alternator. Keep shopping and good luck - it's not going to be cheap! Let us know how things work out for you.
