I noticed Stratstone Hull have them on ebay at around £35 for the front and £40 for the rears. Think I paid around that from local dealer, they will often match or better another dealer's prices.

Is that how long it took to get yours?

I'm hoping it does not take that long! This waiting is the worst part lol!

But I guess it all depends on when it gets on a boat and if that ship stops on the east coast first. Hopefully mine gets on a ship that goes strait to Oxnard!

It's kind of a blessing to in a way too because Dinan is working on the stage 2 dinantronics for the F31's and it should be out by the time I take delivery of my car.

You will have to post pics when you take delivery! Any plans for Dinan upgrades?

Oh you bet. It'll be a looker.

As far as Dinan, yes my plans are for stage 4 turbo kit, at some point.

Cool F31 328i in Shanghai

Hi Guys

Great forum and great threat! Had lots of inspiration and motivation from this particular one.
Not easy to get stuff done correctly here in China but I think I am on the right track

Some current pics.

Let me know what you think

Blank Canvas - my 2015 Jet Black Sport Wagon

Adding mine here... Starting from a blank canvas. Little by little.

Bought almost stock. Jet black, with chrome accents.

Changes thus far:

1. tinted windows (via dealer)

2. replaced chrome kidney grilles with black

3. replaced chrome window trim with black glossy - I do not recommend doing this. It's expensive. Just buy the m-sport package.

I'll get new wheels this summer. Thinking 19 in.

yes 12 front, 15 rear.
front could do with 10 IMO but there are issues with 10mm spacers apparently so I chose not to risk it.

Trunk w/net in place - suitcases, toiletries, snacks bag, and diaper backpack

Roof box - pack and play, toddler cot, Kelty child-carrier/backpack, swimming supplies, bathtub, child potty, and car washing supplies (bucket, sponge, and car wash soap - yes, I washed the car to get the bug splatter off when we arrived)

The wagon was an ideal road-trip vehicle. Comfortable, quiet, and fast, while being nimble and fun when the road got curvy 3 year old in the backseat yelling, "put it in sport plus, daddy!". The notion that an American family must have a huge SUV/minivan is very much overblown...

great wagon, i have exactly the same trim and color. just different engine. got the 328d
