BMC FB262/01 Air Filters.... $88 each? Better price / source?

The recent Bosch "010" pump thread ended up with a bunch of great leads for inexpensive online sources for that part.

Who has purchased the BMC air filters recently that knows of a reliable and cheap source?


I think I saw $88 ea somewhere online, but lost track of where it was so I'll need to start my search-fu over again.

It's basically becomes a religious argument around here, but they appear to be the two most popular high-quality manufacturers.

My objective is not to create another pissing match thread.... just looking for good pricing on the BMC.

Just in case anyone was interested, LeoVince in Richmond, CA
http://www.leovinceusa.com/BMC.php is a distributor of the BMC filters now. I use them in my racebikes and will probably put them in the E55 for the next service.
