Just got a call from someone looking for used BMW parts, so I quickly looked through the August GRM I have here at work, but I can't seem to find the ad I wanted. There was a Bimmer recycler who would advertise in GRM with full page ads. Anyone recall them or have a link? It would be cool if there was a link to list of advertisers as there is in the mag. Of course if they no longer advertise that wouldn't be much of a help, but I am sure the current ones would love it. Thanks guys.
I know the one your talking about it's right on the tip of my tongue but I just can't think of it. I keep thinking Al Taylor for some reason.

Thanks Jeremy,
I'll forward those to her but I still can't think of the other one. Al is the bmw diesel guy in SC i think. Dang, I see the ad in my head but not the words! Seems like it was somewhere in the northeast.
EuroDepot is in NH - might be the one you are thinking about. BimmerBum advertises in the magazine. Vines Auto has been fair with me. If it is late model, Stan Gills probably has it but will bend you over. No links provided, because I don't want this to be an endorsement of any specific provider - but those are the ones I've personally had experience with.

It also may have been Bavarian Auto Recycling.

I know I've also seen Metric Mechanic advertise in GRM, but their specialty seems to be expensive rebuilt engines, rather than used parts.
