How were you able to get the electronics cover right behind the heat shield back on? Did you have to bend it back into place or cut some of the side? The heat shield corner seems to be in the way a bit.

Thanks for the help

I had to leave my electronics cover off. If anyone had a different experience let me know!

Yeah, I had to bend it in. The cover was slightly flexible, so with some persistence, I was able to get it in.

Its literally turning heads everywhere I go. Im so happy that I didnt pull the trigger on returning this. And I feel like its only gonna get better with FMIC and charge pipe. BMW did try to pull some it voids your warranty stuff but I told them according to the warranty protection act you have to prove that the intake is causing the issue. Havent had them mention warranty once since then. Considering im going in for tire issues. For the 3rd time.

I just want to thank everyone that helped me out and give input. This is a great community. And one I will always go to for help.

Did anyone else with this issue solve it? I got one on an F30 M sport and it makes that same noises.
