Do you guys think its even worth it to do any Performance mods on an 04' 530.
if so what?
also does anyone know if i can take my car to the dealer after I have purchased it and have bmw install a suspention kit, that way my warranty will still be valid. Or is this not even worth it either

Rumor has it that BMW will be coming out with their own performance parts to compete with the likes of Dinan. Supposedly, it'll happen in a couple of months.
