Hahaha~~~such a good idea ar ! I might ditch the fog light and let the cool air in for the front brake kit. Will do it together with my next oil change! By the way, how often did you guys get to the oil change? I do it every 7k-8k!
I haven't changed it yet since I got my car back in August. But the oil has been "eaten" by the engine after a few months of ownership so got topped up by BMW. Can you consider that changing?

Every 7-8k? Do you change it at BMW or some other place. How much are they charging you for an unschedule oil change?

Looking forward to see your cold air intake mod

Since my bmw warranty has already been expired, I do my oil change at my friend's garage.

I can do 7000km within 4 months, it will cost me a fortune to do my service at BMW dealer.

But actually I don't really know what the new CIP fixes. The car was fine before, but I guess they are just following orders.
