Hi All,
After I got my car dinged 3 times and my air filter box scratched (2 deep scratches that are about 1 inch long), my dealer's Service Manager not only removed the dings, detailed my car, gave me 3 bottles of BMW fuel additive but is also offering me the Dinan CAI at a discounted price (~15% off retail) since the scratches can't be removed.
Link to my recent incident:

What do you guys think? Should I get it? Is the performance/sound worth it?
Thanks in advance for you responses.

Tell them you want 20% off. 
I have a lot of Dinan stuff so my answer to your question is obvious but I also think the combined Dinan performance mods (exhaust, CAI, throttle bodyl...etc.) would probably make a more noticeable difference than the CAI alone.
