Worth mentioning that Rockauto has a ZF pump (branded as Bosch) for $200 net, which I purchased recently. Don't even need to swap bracket as its included. Under regular E46 M3 drill-down.

Kudos to others for finding the alternatives at cheaper rate.

I was planning on getting this one. Does it come as pictured? Because I have also seen some pictures of it being painted black entirely.

You’re our last hope, obi-wan.

Unfortunately I did not. There was a core on his pump and I didn't want to risk it as it was a clients.
