Advice on Dinan dealers

Morning all. I just wanted to see if anyone had advice on Dinan dealers in central florida. I recently picked up a 2013 BSM F10. This is my first M5. I've driven 3 straight m3s ( total of 4 for over 12 years) but finally had to cave on a "family car". They were all leases, and I never got into modding. Anyways, I've got the bug now. I've got IND cosmetic package and Vorsteiner front lip and rear wing on now. Rear diffuser, rims, Akra exhaust and kW3 var 3 go on in January.

I'm looking at putting on Dinan sway, intake and tune on it (thanks for all the BMS v Dinan info here). I'm located in Orlando. There are a couple of dealers in Tampa and Jacksonville. Just wondered if anyone had any experience/contacts/advice to help me get the best experience and deal. Thanks in advance.
Happy Holidays!

Awesome mods thus far.
I had the Dinan piggyback installed at Foreign Affairs Motorsport but this is farther from you then Tampa etc since they are located in Pompano, Fl

Maybe give them a call spk with Jared he may know a guy in Orlando or PM the Dinan guys here on the forum they may have some suggestions.

You will absolutley not regret the tune. On my car I also have removed the charcoal filters and replaced OEM with BMS, Noelle DPs for more HP better sound (keeping the OEM comp pkg exhaust) and exhaustmeister.

Thanks! Went with the Akra to keep sound a little less aggressive - have the family factor in play .

The family factor always wins out; no matter what discussion

Unfortunately Orlando is one of our dead spots in the country. We are working on resolving that but in the immediate future you will be doing a bit of traveling if you want to go to a Dinan dealer. The alternative is ordering it directly and having whatever local BMW service center you use do the labor or do it yourself.

If you did want an authorized Dinan dealer to do the install then I would recommend Reeves Import BMW in Tampa since they are probably one of the closer dealers and have a large showroom inclusive of demo cars as well. That said, any of our dealers are more then capable it's just a matter of how far you want to drive and what amenities are important to you.

Continental Imports does all my Dinan stuff in Gainesville. I highly recommend Darren and his team.
