F06 spring loaded boot / trunk?

[Qsilver7]

If not a power trunk...why not at least give the f06/f13/f12 a soft close trunk...we didn't even get that.

Soft close all around except where needed the most

Honestly, I think I'm more perturbed with the way I have to close the trunk moreso than not having the power open feature. I hate touching the trunk...leaving fingerprints...so I reach underneath the lid to pull it down from the indented pull-down handles. Most times I can do it quickly and with enough "umph" for it to close. But sometimes if I have to do it from a weird angle...it doesn't close...so I have to touch the trunk or re-open and try again. This is when the soft-close feature would really be handy. If the doors have this feature...why not the trunk, right?

I posted this on another thread, but here it is again:

I purchased the kit from Bimmer Coder for about $575 USD (shipping to the US included). I have not received it yet, but can't wait to do this mod.

Instructions are attached and POC of the person who sold me the kit.
