Thumbs up Trusted Sellers?

Hi Guys,

Just bought my first BMW, and want to get modding on it ASAP

Obviously I'm new here and to the whole BMW scene, just wondering what any of you recommend as trusted online sellers in the UK? I'm guessing eBay will be pretty popular, but any others?

I think you can come unstuck with e-bay or Amazon Market Place in the same way as any seller found through a google search. My advice if in doubt is to put up a thread and see if anyone else has experince of the seller or the product.

SSDD get good reviews on here, never used them myself.

Have got one item through Anneka and Sytner which was a good transaction.

For modifications i'd recommend SSDD Motorsport, BMAutosport (for wheels), Birds.

Bad experiences (not me personally but know people who have) MStyle.

For used parts / breakers - Quarry Motors is good and is reputable in the BMW scene.

Hope this helps

Wow, thanks guys! I'll have a look at these!

I thought SSDD would be popular but wanted to make sure before I started buying

EDIT: is PPCGB good? - http://www.ppcgb.com

I bought some black grills from them for my 1 series and found them to be of very good quality and a pleasant enough outfit to deal

Picked up some M4 side skirt extensions today - carbon OEM shape from Teddy (SSDD). Nothing fancy.

He called his mate at a body shop and 45 mins later they were purchased and fitted.

I'll add some pics tomorrow but they have really sorted the factory carbon kit (front and rear splitters)
