Where to buy Gruppe M for Z4M?

Assuming I won't find one used in the next week or two, where would you suggest to buy one new?

I should have been more clear. Is there any vendor that people would suggest? I saw mentions of renn-spec in the past(2 years ago) but it looks like their site is down, so I'm not sure if they're still in business or a viable option.

If not, then yes, I will just flip a coin and buy from someone I find on Google.

Not sure as I haven't bought one, but I when I was researching it I was under the impression that thery were drop shipped. So just pick a vendor. Google shopping shows vivid and turner are the same price. Maybe some vendors have these in stock, but I really doubt it

EAS (european auto source) is one of the most reputable and sell a lot for our cars. They are in the vendor section.

Vivid racing is another option but don't know about them as a business.

Thanks guys. Sounds like I'll go with EAS then.

Is Renn Spec out of business?

For the same price, you can add euro headers and an afe intake and it will sound better.

Just my experience.

I appreciate the advice. I already have some Euro Headers going in so it will be headers + whichever intake.

Your car sound amazing. I didn't see an intake listed in your thread. Are you running stock?

The video is with AFE, but most of the sound is euro headers. I would wait till the headers are installed. You may not need more noise afterwards.

I've gotten several things from EAS and vivid. Everything was timely and smooth.
