Aftermarket refers to any part that is not OEM. Not BMW made. Not original.
bmaparts.com have OEM parts. bavauto.com has aftermarket parts.
OEM = Original Equipment Manufacture........... so not this
You can buy genuine BMW parts, or you can go to and buy aftermarket parts. Brakes are an example of parts that can be found on the aftermarket that perform (in most cases) as well as the factory parts, and sometimes you will find aftermarket parts that work better.
Aftermarket is where the custom wheel covers come from. Lights and seat covers are aftermarket parts. Belts and wiper blades. Get it?
