I am having a very hard time finding bmw i3 friendly garage. Anyone can recommend a specialist to get hold mode, fuel tank unlocked and H&R lowering springs installed, in the Austin TX area? Much appriciated
 
Check with Terry at Terry Sayther Automotive. Great BMW shop. I believe Terry has an I3 among many other BMWs.

great i will reach out to him. so far i found only two shops that felt able to install the springs quoting $500 and $800, alignment is extra :shock: :shock: :twisted:
 
WIth the very expensive battery pack down under, I just don't see much allure to lowering the vehicle! Your car, your choice...hope it works out for you.
 
I finally go the lowing springs installed for a rip-off price $680 :shock: Austin area mechanics are crazy over-priced, i stopped by at 8 different shops and no one even wanted to take a closer looks, they don't move a finger for less then $110 per hour, pure madness, they make more money then a CEO.
I will do the coding myself.

Front drop 1.18" and back 1.27", and with 20mm spacers front and back
