dude, nice! I did the v2 version in my build thread, check it out!

any issues during install? shops wanted to charge me 2.5 hours of labor because of the air bag they said. it only took me maybe an hour or so while taking photos. bmw has great design and efficient install of parts that makes DIYs fun again! a lot of connectors in there for sure!
I saw your V2, looks awesome!!! I wanted to do it myself but I didn't have the necessary tools and I didn't feel like waiting any longer to get it installed. A shop charged me for 45 minutes of labor! That's all it took them haha

that's a very fair rate. glad you had a good shop to charge fairly and do the install right. did you preserve your vibration mechanism?

Very clean car! Do you mind recording a quick clip of how your exhaust sounds with primary and secondary resonator delete?

Looks great in white, the 20" wheels make a big difference. Hope to see some carbon mirror caps and side/sill extensions.

Are the factory emblems still easily re-usable? How would you align it?
I hate the emblems and was going to de-badge as soon as I get the car.
They're still reusable but you'd have to re-apply the tape on the back of them and realign them perfectly... seems like a nightmare to do so I'll probably end up buying a new badge from BMW if I ever want to put it back on!
