What I don't get is why the two OEM liners above are $100 different in price. 127 for the standard and 233 for the M liner. That is a crazy "M" tax....
The volume of M liners made was much smaller than for the rest of the non-M fleet so the price will be higher. The cost for an injection mold for a part that size is around $200K. Just the tooling cost amortized across the non-M fleet is about $1 per part. For the M cars it's roughly $50 per part.
