Where to purchase OE BMW Parts online in Ontario?

Hi guys,

I now have too many of these BMWs I maintain. Note I said "maintain" not "own". I'm the go-to-guy for repairs in the immediate and extended family. I used to use Bimmerspecialist.com, but they were bought by Pelican, and now I have to deal with the cross border nonsense. My latest for BMW parts is to get the maxbimmer discount at Marinello in Vaughan. But I always have to get there to get the parts.

Is there an online source for parts that would source the parts from within Canada, offer decent shipping and competitive discounts over just going to a parts counter? I love just clicking and having stuff on my doorstep.

Thanks.

Thanks. Some of the places carry no-name aftermarket parts or a limited selection. Looking for OE BMW parts. I found this site Wholesale BMW Parts Superstore | BMW Parts & Accessories, but based in the US. I can get parts over as I have a spot for pickup, but again, not ideal.

Looking for a place where I can enter any BMW part number from realoem and just get it. If I find a source, I'll post. For now my discount source is Marinello in Vaughan with the max discount.

Thanks for the help though.

Not many places for canadians
https://germanparts.ca/
This one is pretty good bu expensive.
I buy mostly from rockauto. Nothing beats rockauto in Canada, period.
All the US websites such as ecstunning, turnermotorsport, fcpeuro etc. are great for US with free shipping. The shipping to Canada is like $40 USD for small parts, totally not worth it, especially considering the conversion rate.
Rock auto is the only that has cheap and very fast shipping and has good prices.
A lot of parts are good quality and made elsewhere than china.

Never heard of it, looks interesting...
I remember ordering a part from germanparts.ca
They have so many OEM parts, it's the closest thing I know of in Canada compared to ecstunning, fceuro etc.
The good thing about germanparts.ca is that they also have a physical store in Ontario.
However I'm on a completely different side of the country in Alberta.
I tracked down the shipping information, and turned out when I ordered the part from germanparts.ca, it was actually shipped by a different company from Calgary itself. The company is https://autocamping.ca
I went on the website and it looks like you need to be a business, be some kind of a mechanic or something.
So unfortunately there was no way to open an account.

Looks like worlpac is the same idea

WORLDPAC is a wholesale distributor of original equipment automotive products. New account requests will be processed for established automotive businesses who provide a valid business license and resale tax number. WORLDPAC reserves the right to limit distribution in certain markets. Account requests submitted by individuals (Non-commercial or consumer requests) will not be processed.

I wish I could buy the parts directly, instead of going through a middleman (a website like rockauto or a physical store)...
