This topic has come up in other threads because, if you order CF hood at time of build, you are not just paying $6,500 for CF hood. You paid for stock Competition hood; BMW does not credit you for cost of stock hood toward CF hood; BMW keeps stock hood and - as I have learned in another thread - throws it straight in dumpster . . . and to boot - as learned from Poochie - they DO charge you labor for swap-out at port.
So, if ordered at time of build, you are looking at cost of stock Competition hood + cost of CF hood + cost of labor to swap-out hoods at port. Suddenly, this $6,500 CF hood is costing $10K-plus!
On the other hand, if you purchase after taking delivery, it's cost of stock Competition hood in original build + $6,500 for CF hood + cost of prep/paint/install of CF hood . . . but, I guess, you retain the original hood for potential resale.

Just a quick note on your breakdown. If you were to buy the part at the time of build and have them install at port. The MSRP is the full cost you will pay including install.
For example, you know I plan to have CF mirrors installed at Port, this will cost $1,040 (including part and installation).
I took a picture of a monroney awhile back with accessories added, as you can see, the part price is what you see on the website with no other line item included for installation. Everything is bundled as one. |

Yes, that's what Poochie was saying before when I said there is no labor cost if you get it in original build. . . Poochie said it's bundled into cost (into final MRSP). Basically, it's not free labor at port, but Poochie did say it was about half the labor cost as aftermarket install by third party.

P.S. what's a 'monroney?' |
A monroney is the dealer's window sticker
