[QUOTE="bimmerholic, post: 391440, member: 16686"] Speaking of genuine is a rather subjective word. Original parts are obviously genuine. OEM parts are equally genuine to OEM standards. Counterfeit parts are obviously non-genuine. It goes to all manufacturers for that matter. OEM are much cheaper compared to original parts for many reasons for ex: QC isn't as stringent as original part manufacturers. OEM parts can the job of a original part just as well. The question you should be asking is, how long can an OEM part last compared to an original part, given the fact that it's much cheaper to begin with yet it's genuine to OEM standards? As an alternative to acquiring spare parts at your local stockist, you may find many parts distributors online as well. In some instances, they could be cheaper buying them online incl. shipping. BTW, how's the E39 scene in Egypt? [/QUOTE]
