Hey both from Amazon. The lip is IKON Motorsports I believe it’s a 3 piece plastic lip with a look-like carbon fiber print. Cost $70 and very easy install. The spoiler is a real carbon fiber spoiler from Amazon as well, cost $150. And easy to install also. It’s a bit different and less aggressive than some of the big duckbill looking ones. It looks almost OEM but is a bit bigger than that.

What is your feedback on the change in ride and handling? Is your car with adaptive suspension?

I do have adaptive suspension. The ride is awesome. To be honest very much like stock except you have more compliance and feedback. Honestly it feels great.

How long did you drive on the stock suspension before changing the springs? Have you driven on bad roads and freeways/highways? Is Sport setting livable or too firm after installing the springs?

I've read mixed opinions on how the ride is affected even with Dinan's springs which have the least lowering compared to H&R, Eibach and AST.

Some people say it's very close to stock or very much like stock. And others say it's harsher or bouncier than stock. I understand it's subjective, but good to collect feedback.

I drove 2000 mikes on the stock suspension. I have a lot of experience driving on the stock suspension being that this is my second m340i xdrive with adaptive m suspension. My last one I kept stock other than doing 245 40 19 conti dws 06 plus's. I'm telling you if you have adaptive m suspension and put the Dinan springs with supplemental ride quality kit on it Handles much better than stock and looks a hell of a lot better without being slammed and damaging your undercarriage. I drive 45 mins to work everyday in long Island and the roads aren't pretty here. I'm so happy I went with the Dinan set up. Only negative I can think of is the tiny little bit of bounce you get. I personally like it but it's so negligible it's almost not worth mentioning it.

I appreciate your feedback. The drop looks good with the Dinan springs.
