Im selling my intake for my M235i. I never actually installed it because I wound up getting an f80 M3. It comes with all the parts besides the filter. I'm asking $400 OBO.

Any other pics? That box makes it look used or just really dirty

Also, this photo shows 2 of the 4 parts included in the kit from Dinan. Are the other parts included?

That is the molding texture of the plastic.

If it's truly uninstalled the parts bag will still have the weather stripping and the rivets un-used, as this stuff needs to be replaced when re sold.

It doesnt come with the filter, all other parts included

That's odd if it's truly new. They come with a filter when new. The air filter alone is $60

It's actually $94, I've been trying to find one cheaper for years now.

If you find a new filter for $60, I'll take it in a heartbeat.

Dinan part number: D401-0020.

I got a brand new kit from my insurance after an accident. The filter needed to go on the car, but I just put the stock intake on there. I have more pictures I can send, you can tell the intake is new.

That's crazy. That alone will have me look elsewhere or just ignore intakes all together.

So are you guys saying its not worth unless its like ~$250? New is $450, filter costs 90? Then the random parts...not sure how much that is and the fact that it isn't actually new

[chadrandom]

Only you know what it's worth to you. For me, I'd probably be looking to pay $200 since and additional $100 in parts are needed, plus the time and effort to find them, order them and wait for them. Anything more that that and I'd personally prefer to just buy it new and not leave anything to chance, because I've been burned on these forums before. But despite how much I would love to offer $200, even that's not in my budget at the moment. These are in high demand though, and many people don't ask all the right questions, so I expect the seller will be able to get more for it and may not want to take lower offers. You can always ask in a PM though.

I understand being apprehensive because you've been burned. I have as well, and I can tell you doing a business transaction on paypal protects you in that instance. If anyone wants to call me and FaceTime me with the intake to see its condition that's completely fine with me. I wrote OBO for a reason.

Thanks for the reply. I'm still really new to this so i'm not sure what additional parts I would need so i'm just trying to make sure I wouldn't get stuck with random parts.
