      Unfortunately mate I just got mine off a friend so I couldn't honestly tell you.
      But I'm quite sure that if you searched for bmw e61 525d blanking plates you could find them there.

    Hi there,
    I had my car BMW 635 with M57 engine, in the garage to remove the swirl flaps, so basicly they blanked them exacly as you did in the video above. However, at first i didn't notice anything wrong with the car as i was driving it slow. but, after few days i was trying to play around with the car and rev it and i notice the engine struggling between gears and it feels like a power loss. basicly when i press the accelerate a bit harder, the car just trying to build up the speed but very slow, when before deleting the swirl flaps...the car shift down a gear and the revs goes up to 3000 RPM or more in order to build the speed much faster...but now just nothing.
    Any advice on this and what i should do?
    I heard that no everyone have the same problem after swirl flaps remove but, there are quite a lot of cars which are facing the same problem as mine and i don't really understant why is this happening.
    Thank you!!!

      You lose bottom end torque when you remove swirl flaps.
      When your engine is at low rpm, the swirl flaps close up.
      When that happens, air will only come in from the top tube in the manifold, making a swirling effect in the combustion chamber.
      This will lead to a greater diesel and air mix, causing power to increase.
      Ive read somewhere that the swirl flaps increase the low end torque by about 30%
      The only reason they are disliked is that they fail. And when they fail, they will end up in the combustion chamber.
      Swirl flaps are fantastic, and if it were not for the egr ruining them with soot, they would not be so hated
      Egr is always the first thing i rip of my cars, as they are garbage
