UPDATE: I'll have to rescind my recommendation for this item. In a mere month, it has stretched a lot and is now loose side-to-side.

I'd also recommend this generic trunk net I got off AliExpress for $6.70 shipped.

It's a little loose but it's meant to be so stuff can actually fit under it.

Yeah, the carpeted surface is nearly as slick as ice as far as objects in the trunk. Rubber mats help but things can still slide around. I'm not a big fan of the nets because there are a lot of scenarios where it doesn't work so well (flowers, breads, and other things that could be crushed) but the nets work quite well for other things.

While that's true, you don't have to put everything under the net, you can just put the stuff that doesn't go on top of it and it's almost like the net isn't there.

Also for future reference this one was the 70x70cm size net.

Thing’s definitely slide around in the trunk, I use a collapsible partition for grocery runs to keep milk or anything round becoming bowling balls.

I use a plastic milk crate. It is pretty ugly, but works for those small things I don’t want rattling around behind the seat. It’s tied down using a strap through the bottom between the rear most tie down points.

This is a consolidated list of strut tower braces for the G29 that I've found and/or owners have reported in other threads.

Does the M40i come with single exhaust on each side and anyone took off that stupid exhaust cover and replaced with nice aftermarket exhaust tips?

Thoughts on replacing chrome badges on the rear with gloss black to match the black trim all over the car?

There are also gloss black options for the Sdrive badge as well.

Opinions?

That doesn't appear to be exactly the same design. I'd much prefer to buy the OEM badges, ensuring quality and correct design though I haven't found an OEM s30i in black.

I did just that. Although I got my gloss badges from BMW. I used 3rd party gloss badges on a Range Rover evoque some years ago and after 3 years of Thailands fierce sun, they faded badly. So I didn’t want to risk that again.

Here are the ones I have:

Once you go black, you don’t go back!

Those black emblems look great. Now I just have to find the S30 part.

Not that I've seen. You're the first I've heard that doesn't care for the factory tips. The only options I've seen involve replacing the exhaust system.

I am more interested in replacing the exhaust cover and exposing the actual tips, hate the rectangular cover and makes it look like a lexus

yes all the BMWs i owned and have changed the tips only , kept the stock exhaust but put aftermarket nice tips, looks way better than stock

[ebirotedu]

I think they look great stock and fit the car, but to each his own.

There are certainly posts in this forum of aftermarket exhausts but I have not seen any with different tips on the OEM exhaust that I can recall.
