Engine Mount for BMW 3 Series: Aluminium Alloy
This engine mount for the BMW 3 Series is specified around aluminium alloy, which decides how it behaves in service far more than the part name does. We build to a written specification — base material, dimensions, finish and packing — and hold that specification on file so every reorder reproduces the approved piece.
The usual reason a programme changes supplier is not unit price. It is a specification nobody had written down, or packing that arrived crushed at the port. Both are specification problems, and both are preventable.

Questions buyers ask
How long does sampling take?
Samples leave the factory in 10 working days, and each revision round adds about 3 days once you have seen the first piece.
What is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 2000 pieces per specification. Mixed sizes inside one shipment are accepted once the total reaches that figure.
Can you match an existing sample?
Send a sample and we will reverse-engineer the specification, then produce a counter sample for approval before any bulk starts.
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the ECE R90-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
Share a sample or a drawing and we will quote against a written specification, not against a photograph.
