Ordering a 328i sport line, when will M parts be available?

Almost pulled the trigger yesterday, but I decided to wait until the end of the month to take advantage of the $1000 discount from the Team USA promotion.

Does anyone know if the M performance parts/accessories will be available for order by then? I know the M performance package isn't available until sometime in July, I'd hate to have to wait that long to order... I really want the aero pieces that are constantly taunting me in the corner of the screen.

Some M performance parts are available now. The aero parts probably won't be available till Nov-Dec. A month or two after the first M-Sport Lines are delivered to customers.

Is the dealer going to charge some installation fee?

Once these aero kits hit the market, you won't have to buy it from the dealer. I'm sure many oem online shops will sell them. The aftermarket shops will sell them. And eventually, some will even copy them and sell em cheaper. You will most likely be able to buy them unpainted. Of course the option of having it prepainted and installed by your dealer is there.

Here's the description from the source of that video.
"Front Splitter, Rocker Panels and Rear Diffuser for M Sport Aero Kit

...The good news is that there will be a retrofit kit for those of us who were not able to or did not opt for the M Sport kit on our F30s. Each piece in this aero kit is designed to have the option of being left black, painted to a specific color or anything in between. Individualize your kit by painting it in a way that no one else has."

I think it would be best to have the M sport kit ordered with the car. The paint job from BMW will be much nicer than going to an outside shop. I think it will also come out cheaper ordering it with the car.
