- Sway bar - What for? Any photo or web-site?

for sure, I won't do anything which may affect the warranty from BMW.

bodykit(mtech) At ak
K&N filter get 2hp more and use for 50k km
Sprint booster version2 to cut the lag of the gas peddle
Sway bar for a better ride and the car becomes a different 1

I think it would be better if you pop down to AK for a blow water then you can see our cars with all these mods
