Will this in anyway void my warrenty?

[laingmui]

I really don't want to do anything to my 1er that will give BMW any reason to void my warrenty but I own a 128i in Blue Water, and I have a friend at an Auto Upholstry who is willing to put the same blueish color seam into my seats for about $700. Only thing is that seat will have to get taken out and I don't know if that will do anything to the warrenty. Any ideas?

It shouldnt void your warranty. Cosmetic mods dont usually. Worst case, anything pertaining to your seat maybe void.

It should only effect the seat.

$700 to reseam? I hope he does a good job! That include the steering wheel and boots?

Anything can void your warranty....but you can alway argue the other way.

obviously it also depends on the problem you want to cover - anything directly related to your modification will definitely be void.

I think so.. I haven't really looked too much into it. I trust him to do a good job if i decide to go through with it. He's done a lot of work for big companys in the city....besides, I'm his wife's boss.... he better do a good job! j/k

may void your seam warranty, your leather warranty and if he screws up the install/re-install and it causes defects, that won't be warrantied either.
