If wasn't for you I wasn't even going to know about these nuts and as usually I was going to make my home made 1M brace be bigger hack job. Thank you! My weekend went easier because I consult you. Now about the price:
I will say it again, BMW is overprized brand, nothing special, every day, common vehicle, and on top they think M is sacred hence the price. I have connections with fee parts suppliers in the area, so not shops or parts stores, but suppliers that move parts from the manufacturer to shops and auto parts stores and found out that similar nuts for other brands are in $1.5 to $3 range. The M3 strut bar is $400 and I wouldn't consider it even if BMW sends it to my house with a technician to install it incuded.
