I would ask around at your local bmw dealers... ask them to look up the cost of replacing the rear bushing on a M3 or 1M(not on your car!). hats bc the 135i bushing get pressed out thru the bottom of the subframe axle... while on the M3/1M the front bushings get pressed out/in from ABOVE... which means dropping the rear axle. Most shops should not charge you more than six hours to do this upgrade. I believe Wade found a shop near the 'Ring to do his.
My go-to guy in Wiesbaden doesn't have the special tool required and the Mainz BMW dealership is very mod unfriendly.
I'm waiting for Wade's update on his install. If all goes well I'll make the drive over there.
