Dinan Question
I have recently heard that to get the Dinan badge all you need now is 7 points. I was looking into getting the CAI, Throttle body, and strut bar for my 4.8 but that will only give me 6 points, 1 shy of the badge. The only way I think I can get 7 pts is to get the dinan exhaust, but I am happy with the sound and look of the 4.8 exhaust. Anyone have any suggestions?

Why would you want to give Dinan FREE advertisement anyway? To me, if they want to slap their name on my car, they would have to pay me...not the other way around!

Is BMW paying you money?

I don't think it's free advertising... If you're a new company w/o credentials and put a badge on my car then I consider that FREE advertising. But a company/brand like Dinan it's more of the owner letting everyone know that you don't own just a regular BMW...

You can probably buy one from Ebay without doing any of upgrades
