OK i would check with Dinan on what the warranty is since they state, "commencing on the date of first retail sale or the date the vehicle is first placed in-service as a demonstrator or company vehicle". Which you're the latter. But it's just a year.

For the thread you read, was it the early dinan springs? they had some manufacturing issues but that was only the first batch or so. I haven't heard of their springs causing other BMW components to fail. Not even the stock shocks

Looks like the issues were around 2014 with the springs not sitting properly and tearing thru the boot.
3 problems were reported out of 30 springs sold from that batch. Couldn't find anything newer so hopefully they figured it out.

Got this reply from Dinan
"You can have a local shop install hem and still retain warranty with the one caveat that we cannot guarantee labor on a non-authorized shop. Basically what it amounts to is if they somehow botch the install and cause a problem then Dinan would not cover it under warranty."
