I've managed to source SNR front bearing for £57.72 per side, does anyone know if these can be purchased any cheaper or is there an alternative brand that people would recommend.

£37 per side, that's a huge discount of retail from ECP as they quoted me £80+ per side, sure it was SNR parts?

They're £156 per side according to the Coopers BMW price list, even with a Cotswold discount you're probably still looking at £120 per side, how the heck did you get fronts from a dealer for £60?

Yeah, 60 quid per side from ECP for SNR fronts is a decent price, so that's as good as it gets, both for price and quality. Go for it.
