I ordered 10 points worth of equipment(actually 11 with the pedal pads) and they won't send me my damn badge and plaque until I fill out a dumb form and they get my invoice in the mail. Why travel down to the shop twice? Why can't they send that with my exhuast, oil cooler and intercooler? That sucks! This is on a BMW and if you don't understand I can elaborate on what this means.
I've never heard of a points system but I guess it's a way of saying your dinan mods must equal up to a certain point value before you get to call your car a dinan modded car... right? Like earning a marlboro branded jacket after smoking enough to kill yourself, except healthier for you, less expensive, and cooler.:D

I guess that's due to the amounts of cocky BMW drivers (not necessarily owners) around and they might not want to put their badge on? just a thought... :P
Either that or Dinan's just dumb... tell them to send it to your house, it's just badging...
You didn't buy all those things just to get the badge right? :). J/K.

Steve Dinan is an egomaniac, no surprise here.

I spent 6200 for 11 points. That doesn't include labor. Labor is another 1k on top of that. I am not doing the most labor heavy stuff like suspension mods. I like the suspension on my car just fine.
What mods were you thinking of putting on your E93? Procede or Juicebox?

So BMW dealers sell and install Dinan, but I thought Procede was also accepted by BMW, the JuiceBox mod seems to good to be true but every time I google Juicebox mod something about a voided warranty comes up
