Those are just the facts.
I agree.

There was always better options than Dinan that cost less and performed better.

Dinan, is just like all the old BMW aftermarket companies, were insanely overpriced and they fleec'ed BMW owners for years. See Groupe M, ACS, Dinan, the list goes on. The same thing happened to the Japenese with brands like Mugen, Spoon, etc. If they had just taken normal margins they would still be relevant to this day. They also never innovated much and rested on their laurels. I assume they also used their high profits to buy out the magazines as they drooled all over their parts. The fact is they never actually pushed the platforms forward much.

I'm not angry. I never got suckered by those tuning companies like buying this: https://www.ac-schnitzer.de/bmw/m/m3...m3-f80/?c=5736 <-- I never paid $1050 + shipping for exhaust tips. $525 each! What a steal!!! Just like their $600 strut bars!



Edit: What does your FAST Dinan SC'd E36 put down at the wheels?
