With enough skill its amazing what can be pulled out. For a cherished car if it can be I would personally pay more than paint but I don't know how easy it is to come across someone as patient and skilled as this guy ! And any body shop is going to say it can't be pulled because thats not how...
Reading the youtube comments on your first M140i video was good entertainment while eating breakfast this morning, hilarious. Keep the videos coming at the same rate, great to watch.
I ran a 130i for four years, brilliant car and haven't left BMW since. You can flip a coin if you need them one...
There is a change taking place to the M4 by the addition of a Petrol Particulate Filter. To make room for the PPF they are switching from a carbon driveshaft to a steel one with a smaller diameter. As the M3 is nearer the end of its life cycle it appears they are not applying the change...

Check electrical continuity of all wires from o2 sensor to ecu connector.
Plenty to update.
In the summer the lower inlet was off, checked the injectors on a diy rig, all firing ok. Found the engine mount had failed, hadn't noticed any ill effects ?
but local dealer had one for me the next day, gave the cambelt cover / mount a clean.
Fitted an in car camera...
Interesting, buying direct I bought using the phone app last time, no joy today, still shows 'currently unavailable'. Loaded website on the mac at 5 to 9 and ordered it ok.
A 6+ is bigger than a Samsung Note 3. My Mrs has had a note 3 for the best part of a year, I have road tested it a couple of times and I just couldn't handle it for pocket use, fine if you have a handbag !
