Cheap bang for the buck, 15 min install and perfect for those who dont mess with fuels or advanced exhaust hardware like DP's and Turbos.

I already had it on my PB G80 so it was just a reinstall.

My "noobness" might be showing here but if you're running a flex fuel kit with the race chip, could you technically get more power out of the piggyback similar to a tune?

@vic55 That colour is beautiful. Congratulations.

So I guess this is the first xDrive that has been lowered using the 2wd springs. How is ride? Any issues with the installation?

Just found your other post about the MSS springs.

I posted some items about the install here:

https://g80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...4#post28045524

The car feels the same and the only extra step was the full front shock removal as the AWD system doesnt allow for one to hook the shock out of the way.

The ride is equal to the RWD on MSS and install might be an hour or so longer if that.

The aventurine looks amazing in sunlight!! I was really contemplating this colour when I saw it was offered in the "standard" colour palette for 2022 but I wanted a bold colour for my bold sports car so went toronto red instead. This red looks incredibly classy though, way more than the TR does. Congrats!!

I know I’ve already commented here but as others have echoed, this color is amazing. I’m not typically a red guy and wouldn’t ever consider TR (but I understand it’s nice; just not for me).

However I could totally rock this!

You know I was almost sad to give up the Portimao but this thing is just badass.

Thanks to all here for the great comments and messages.
