My Ride: 04 545i - Titanium Silver/Black, Sport pkg, Comfort Seats w/ Lumbar, Premium Sound, power rear sunshade, Adaptive Xenon Headlights, Steptronic, Park Distance Control, Fold down rear seats w/ski bag, Aux jack, 6-disk changer, puddle lamps...
Engine: Custom Remus cat-back exhaust w/chrome square tips, K&N Air Filter, Charcoal Filter Removed, Sprint Booster :-), 50/50 mix of 91+100 Octane, EuroRev ECU Remap (coming soon lol), Dinan High-Flow Throttle Body (coming soon...maybe lol)
Interior: Portable Sirius Stilletto 100 w/car kit, Garmin Nuvi 680 mounted below rear-view mirror, LCI-style I-drive knob, Dark Poplar Center Dashboard Trim.
Exterior: E60 forum clings, 5% rear tint, ACS roof spoiler (painted black for distinct look against limo tint), ACS trunk spoiler, ACS add-on front spoiler and rear apron (awaiting installation), "18 Black Staggered BeBeS Style OER (emergency replacement for cracked sport 124 rims), black kidney grill, white accessory lighting (including license and trunk lamps), Angel-eye upgrade, AIB xenon-matched fog lamps, AIB V3's on order, red rear reflectors
So I got off work a lil late yesterday and took a trip over there. They are just down the road from Center BMW - I'm wondering if there is any correlation. In any event, they were closed when I got there (they close at 6pm). I took some pics of the joint with my cell phone. On the door they state there is 24-hour audio and video surveillance. I'll try to head there on lunch break, or after I leave the office. If I can get them to provide a copy of the surveillance video, or at least review it, we could be golden. Will keep you posted.

There's a good chance that they would not release a copy to you a 3rd party, I would also suggest you not mention when you visit since we may not be sure that the person(s) involved may be watching this thread.

I can't believe someone would actually think that they could get away with credit card fraud. It's only a matter of time before they get caught!

If the culprit is on this forum, there's a good chance this thread will have scared him away into hiding and/or he'll make sure to not slip up and reveal any info on the exhaust publicly where someone can catch him.
Anyway, I think the first thing to find out is who's the person who signed for the package. Have the authorities question that individual.
