Lowering springs for 550i with DHP

I think the F10 5 series is pretty nice car with enough power (V8) and technology for today's driver. But I don't like that it kinda sits high so I think I'm ready to pull the trigger on getting the ACS springs. I'm a little concerned about losing warranty on the suspension if something goes wrong.

For those who's done it, what's your feedback? Should I trust this kind of work to a local performance mods shop or pay more and take it to a dealer? I'm located in SoCal...

ccboye, your question maybe better posted in the wheels and suspension section. In fact, I just did the ACS springs on my 550i DHP and you can read my 2cents here

Hope this helps
