Cutting expenses is all right (within reasonable extent) but when you can't you should just pay, perhaps. If you aren't ready for a dealer no matter what it's just too bad (regarding the car choice). I choose OEM parts just as long as I can. I like it simple. And no, I don't like their prices.
It could be good for the value of the car to have a complete service history at an authorized BMW dealer. I used a hydraulic jack before, but found out that an E46 jack is compatible and even faster in use. It was also rather affordable second hand, and probably never used before I bought it.
