Well, it took them long enough, but I have it from good sources that BMW will be rolling out an AFTERMARKET parts division that will rival Dinan and everyone else out there. Every BMW dealership will be able to mod your car with no impact to warranty. I understand it will be rolled out in the next month or so. Check with your SA to confirm dates in your area. I am told that pricing will be very competitive in the aftermarket and much cheaper than Dinan.
If anyone else has any info, please post.

I spoke with Mike about 2 weeks ago about some dinan stuff and he told me to hold off because the BMW aftermarket version was coming. Allen confirmed it yesterday and said he would be getting his display in about 2 weeks. The cabinet in the SA area has been cleaned out and Allen said he would probably hang some stuff on the walls in the service drive thru lane. It will be interesting to see what is offered and the price points.
I did not ask about s/w for the 535 because I don't have one. It will be extremely interesting to see how BMW handles this one and still maintain warranty.
all in all tho, this is good news.

Is this only for the US dealers or something BMW is planning as an extension to the Parts & Accessories offering world wide?
