Question Dinan Parts Deals?

I've been looking for a deal on a Dinan intake, but I haven't had much luck. Most retailers charge the same as the Dinan site. I've heard that some dealers offer discounts. Does anyone have experience with a dealer or other retailer that has decent prices on Dinan parts?

Its Dinan, so the short answer is no. Decent prices are not part of their business model. I am not trying to flame Dinan or anything, but don't expect to find significantly discounted parts.

Some Dinan dealers give BMWCCA discount of 10%. It is hard to get much better.

Hey guys I must be losing my mind. Very sorry about this. It was NOT for the CAI. my mistake. It was for the Mperf spoiler.
Brain f*#t just remembered. Been pulling my hair out trying to find it too....

Dinan used to give 10% or even 15% off twice a year.

They have stopped doing this the last 3 years or so.

Most BMWCCA discounts do not apply to Dinan parts since most are special ordered from the BMW dealer. You can however use this discount to get M performance parts and other dealer related parts and merchandise.

You may be able to find a dealer who doesn't know any better or doesn't care and will give you that discount but I wouldn't hold your breath.

I must say the Dinan intake is very good and you don't have to change it out for services, but there are other options out there to consider:
-Gruppe M
-afe
-BMS
-Injen
-AWE

Thomspon BMW is the closest Dinan dealer near us, I have bought Dinan parts from them before using my BCCA 10% discount.
