Because for the price of the BMW bumper and parts I can get a replica that is identical minus the side reflectors (which I would have to buy the painted ones anyway because they look hideous), I can buy the replica, paint and have it installed for almost a 3rd of the costs and the quality is identical. The front bumper gets all messed up over time anyways especially up north so why would you want to waste money? If I end up hitting a chuck of ice, no big deal. I can buy 2 more to be equal to the cost of the OE. LOL

If the fitment was poor slm and they used a different plastic, I would agree with you, but the one from this dealer is exact quality as BMW OE from a material standpoint and injection mold.
