Agreed. Seems like retail.
TAL @ ACG quoted me something virtually identical, without a Group Buy.
It's a Canadian store and they wouldn't really ship to the US. I can ask, though.

That's a good question, I tried.. I really want these which is why I gave up and just paid the dumb price. One of you guys that state you can get then for cheap should do everyone a solid and hook them up with a set. I tried. $550 is a lot but that's the price at 10.. But I'm done, clearly you guys want them for 2-300 which isn't going to happen.

Let's not start throwing rocks at vivid, they are a good company, were are taking about a $75 difference. vivid is the middle man.. It's called mark up.. They need to make money too. Not to mention they also charge $15-20 to insure ur orders. By ordering direct from the distributor of course the price will be lower but as you can see it's really not that much cheaper.

Denroll can do Japanese translation for you. The OEM knock offs on ebay are not availible for the E63 bumper yet, but I e-mailed the guy and he said he had a lot of requests for that fitment. He was going to talk to his manufacturer and see if it could be tooled and produced. They look stock and run under $200. That is: If they decide to make them. I think we will see them in the next couple of months.

You know, I get that, but it gets to a point where people just feel nickel and dimed by crap like this. I mean instead of just giving the straight hook, like a few posters here in this thread generously have, they feel they need to make a few pennies off everyone. It's not like this is the next Walkman, like they would be missing out on such a massive payday if they just told people where to get them themselves. I mean ****, probably 20 or 30 people in the US are even going to order these. And I'm not just speaking of Vivid (although they are doing it in this case), but there seems to be this strange air of secrecy around here when it comes to stuff like this...
