E63 Spoiler .. OEM vs. Replica pricing?

I've seen formymerc selling the replica E63 spoiler for $319.

How much does an authentic OEM part cost?

Yes, I've searched and got part numbers I can't seem to lookup on the various parts sites recommended.

Thanks.

I always seem to see lower priced quotes on OEM stuff on here. e.g. I paid $4 for the ash tray insert, while my dealer wanted $15 or something.

I found one thread (pretty old) where someone said the OEM is so close in price to the replica, might as well go OEM. My dealer's quote for the OEM is way off from the replica though.

dealers are more and more reluctant to give out part numbers. i bought my OEM amg spoiler a year ago for about $400 at getmercedesparts.com. they and parts.com sell OEM parts for a decent discount compared to the msrp price you will pay at dealers. the part number for my spoiler is 2179004889775. that is for iridium silver which is noted by the "775" at the end of the part number. your part number will be different depending on color. they only came in a few colors prepainted. i tried one of the replicas and it was very bad. plus the OEM one comes with 3M tape pre-applied. worth the few bucks to use the OEM one if you ask me.
