Who added Port Installed Accessories?
Did you add any port installed accessories? If so which accessories did you opt for?
My car finished production last week and is waiting to be assigned to a ship. I added these port installed accessories: the M Performance Exhaust, the exhaust tips and the Carbon Fiber mirror caps.

If any, most people here probably just opted for the LSD.
I personally opted for the LSD/diffuser/tips. I couldn't justify the MP exhaust. My car is currently on a boat called Tuscana and is currently in a port in Belgium (as per marine traffic) Does anyone know how long it takes at port before the accessories are installed? My ETA for NY/NJ port is the 4th and where I am in PA is probably only 3hrs max of a drive, so Im trying to figure out when I'll get it. |

Cool accessories. I'm excited and looking forward to attending a Texas 2-Series car meet.

LSD and Black Kidney Grills. Hoping it doesn't delay the delivery too much.
All the people on this forum continually raving about MPE is making me second-guess not getting it. Hopefully I'll be fine without it. I am curious about how many people will do LSD. Based on previous threads I've seen complaining about the price, I was thinking my car might be one of the few with it--which would be a nice selling point when the time comes. |

Having MP exhaust and rear diffuser port installed....it's due into port Feb 27. Asked my CA how long to dealer but he didn't know....he hasn't exactly been pro active with info or updates thus far so not surprised. I'm hoping timing works out so I can turn in current lease before next payment is due Mar 4.

Thanks for the replies. It's cool to know that I'm not alone in adding port installed M Performance Accessories... It was difficult limiting myself on adding accessories now. I plan on adding the front splitter, carbon fiber rear spoiler, rocker panel decals and the stainless pedals at later date.
Also considering adding an AFE drop-in air filter, VMR 705 wheels or powder coating stock wheels, H&R springs and front/rear dash cam setup. Just patiently waiting for it to arrive

LSD only on mine, the rest can be done later or at home. Important to note that I bought mine, I know some leases can residualize the upgrades.

I may be able to provide a review of the AFE drop in filter soon, mine should arrive in the next few days :P

Looking forward to your impressions on the AFE drop-in. By the way, what do we do when it's time to service our cars? Do we remove and clean the AFE filters and put the factory filter back in for service. But the factory filter will be clean and obviously unused.

Will update my own thread on the AFE, and here if I remember :P Dropping in Dinan springs and steel brake lines for summer track events as well.

That said, my current car is a 335i M-sport (which I'm turning in for an M235i). The 335i has a very boring exhaust sound to me, so I wouldn't mind something different. |

But, it seems ridiculous to pay $700 for OEM mirror caps. Jesus Christ, I mean they're tiny plasticy parts that're just for looks anyways !!!
