Your choices in Traverse City (based on your profile location) are pretty limited. The certified technician at the local BMW dealership is very good. What work are you seeking done? (I’d send you a private message, but you’re a brand new forum member.)

Michigan shops

I am looking to get car tuned and install lowering springs. I am in Traverse City, but am willing to travel as far as Detroit/Lansing/Chicago to get work done

Traverse City here too (OMP). Definitely look to Chicago (e.g., IND) or suburban Detroit for a knowledgeable shop. If you’re willing to go a bit farther, I recommend Enthusiast Auto Group in Cincinnati.

Hope to see you around town! The dealer here has not sold any G80s — just one Toronto Red M4 6sp — so yours is a local unicorn. My AWD M4 should arrive by December.

So how do you private message?

And if I didnt want to go all the way to Cincinnati, do you know any shops in Michigan to recommend?

You can private message another forum user once you’ve created a certain number of posts anywhere on Bimmerpost.

You might check out Worldwide Import Automotive (south of S Airport, east of Garfield). One of the guys at the (BMW) dealer recommended it and noted they work on a variety of exotics. And looking at their website, they claim to be a Dinan partner.

Which lowering springs are you going with? I have a KW adjustable kit on order, but it's looking like late October before it's here.

If you're ever down in SE Michigan, look me up. I have lots to install on my 2022 M3 xdrive already...just need to finish up some other projects first.

Hey Eric, like your personalized plate. Mine years ago (previous time I lived in Michigan) was 'RALLYE'; it'll be 'MISSIL3' when my M4 arrives (until I can think of a more model-appropriate moniker).
