Does that include install as well? If so, that's not bad at all...

The prices I listed are just for parts.

Here's the latest word I just received from Dinan on this!

Oh well, as they often say in life, the best things are worth waiting for.

Perhaps in time for XMAS 06'????

BEST REGARDS

Yeah, my sales guy also told me it's still in the works. Wonder how much engineering is put into these badges that makes them take so long to make....

This is interesting... Dinan normally doesn't release email info, as they prefer the phone due to volume. Sweet...now I have an email address. Now let's see if they reply.

Hello there!

Yep, e-mail is definitely something new at Dinan! In general, been noticing more functionality at their Dinan website over the past few months it seems. In addition to being able to e-mail them directly (sales and general feedback), you can now also order Dinan themed t-shirts, license plates, and other promotional items.

Have you checked out their new M5 Dinan poster yet? VERY NICE. Well, i'm hoping they come out with a cool Dinan tuned 545i poster as well!!! Lastly, my overall experience from them in terms of e-mail response has been also good. You just need to be patient, but they'll respond back! BEST REGARDS!
