Hello all! I've lurking in here for quite some time, finally registered as member. Got a 2008 AW 550i m-tech. It already came with RPI exhaust and ram air scoop. Love the sound! Sorry, but I'm still trying to post pics. Probably not possible with the iPad. I will try it with my pc later. Anyways, love the site and I've learned more about the car in here than reading the manual.

One question, is the sport package supposed to be lower than the non sport? My wheels (172s) 19s are flushed with the fenders. Ppl are always asking did I lowered it on springs.
Plus it has DINAN badge in the trunk (thinking about removing it) not sure if it has ecu or what.
