Did you install the millways yourself? I’ve been thinking about doing this mod for a while. Did you consider other uniballs like Turner, VAC, etc?

Got VAC monoball upper control arms installed on Friday. Less road feedback than I had hoped, but definitely more than stock with zero issues with harshness in-cabin. Steering feels much more precise and smooth now.
Unfortunately the techs at my local euro shop told me my front differential pinion seal is leaking, so I’ll have to do that soon. |

I’ve looked into other options such as SPL, etc but landed on Millways mainly for their reputation, for being a well sealed uniball and also my local offer. I drive my car all year around and I’m pretty sure unsealed uniballs would not handle well the harshness of our winters. ~1500 USD for both LCA + tension strut and ~200 USD for tie rods |

Added front fender sealing trims on my F32, which I believe only came on the F34 because that gap is larger on the GT. I always thought this area was missing something, so this checks a box for me.
Also, got a great deal on a "not OEM" intercooler. |

I installed the BMW Security Kit (32302464228) to secure my iDrive 7 Professional Navigation System against theft. Added some additional warning stickers (ordered separately) under the trim.
Lately, many iDrive systems are getting stolen in The Netherlands. They cut a hole in the driver door, disable the alarm and then it takes them about 2 minutes to take touch display, head unit and controller. Often the M-Sport Steering Wheel and the sports transmission selector unit are also stolen. Of course the cut the wires instead of disconnecting the connectors. The total damage can amount up to 15k euros, plus you won't be able to use your car for months. So far I have dodged the bullet (knock on wood), and hopefully this install will help to prevent future theft by discouraging and delaying the lowlifes.
