Indies said the Iridium spark plugs used in F30 are sturdy, when they age it can arc differently and can hurt ignition coils(covered by BMWNA in PZEV states), and/or cause non-optimal combustion hence carbon buildup.
80k probably is close to EOL and DIY should be $70-ish.

Sounds like my local dealer is trying to bend me over. Just did my 40k mi oil change on my 2014 f30 and they want me to do the $500 plug change. Along with coolant and several other flushes totaling $2800.
Looks like I'll be doing this work myself
