Dinan parts for my 545i.

I'm looking to get a Dinan Intake, Stage 1 computer map and exhaust. I am looking for ideas on how I can get discounts

Of course I am a BMWCCA member, which will hopefully help. Any suggestions?

Remember I'm in Maryland so the DINAN dealer I use will need to be available here.

Thanks in advance.

The only thing I can think of is remember back last fall and discussions I had with the parts manager for the largest BMW dealer in the country and he was saying that Dinan was really trying to make a push and were giving out rebates and discounts. Perhaps you can hit up your parts department about that and see what kind of magic they can work for you.

Good luck!

The only Dinan dealer I know if in that area is Sterling. I'm not sure if Towson or Passport are. Personally, I couldn't stand Sterling when I was there and from what I've heard, their attitude hasn't improved much. A very "my shite don't stink cause we're the largest dealer on the east coast" attitude. Noses very high in the air and all that jazz.

As far as discounts on Dinan, call Dinan themself, or give Sterling a call and BMWCCA to see what's up. Again, just personal preference, I think you pay for the name Dinan and don't see as much performance gains as you could with other vendors. Just food for thought.

Did you try Passport? I believe they are a Dinan dealer and give BMWCCA discounts.

Russel Towson Passport and Sterling are all on Dinans list. I'm trying to see who's going for broke and who isn't
