Why is it so god damn hard to buy mods in Europe?
Everytime I google for something I need all I can find is American or UK website that sell parts and cost a shit load to ship in Italy. Maybe I'm stupid but I've been googling for the past hour and I haven't found a single place that sells air intakes or an aftermarket charge pipe for the M235i. Can anyone please recommend a place to buy stuff in Europe?

Well, the internet is unfortunately (for you) biased toward the US.
I would recommend using advanced Google search features to help narrow your search. You might also check with local independent shops to see where they source from. |

Also Dinan for example is US-based and their stuff works for US emissions and other regulations. Would have to think they'd have some sort of issue selling abroad. Maybe not Italy vs rest of Europe but def ROW cars are often tuned slightly differently direct from manufacturer.

Don’t know about place in estern Europe and sure its bit of shipping cost but the UK ones work quit well, specially now when the pound is low. Otherwise, there are a lot of places in Germany, se links below. Ebay.uk .de is also good for finding stuff.

Not sure if we know any particular dealers but we can get you quotes at our wholesale shipping cost if it helps. There are also some good freight forwarders in the US with very competitive rates.
