BMW Performance Parts for the e89

Alright, so the selection of BMW Performance parts compatible with the 09-13 Z4 sucks. At least compared to the 1 & 3 series.

I've gone through the performance parts sticky in this forum; my question to all of you: has anyone here had any success with retrofitting any BMW Performance parts from another model to an e89?
I've done searches; I've seen some Z4s with Performance Brakes (only on the front wheels though because of parking brake issues on the rear). Haven't seen anyone retrofit a performance exhaust from a 1 or 3 series or anything else like carbon trim/defusers/splitters.

Second, somewhat related question: Anyone here have any experience with Dinan exhausts on e89s? There's nothing listed on Dinan's site... I figured I'd ask here before emailing them.
Thanks.

you can basically fit any muffler you want with some cutting and welding job, but since there are videos available for the products made for z4s, I wouldnt test anything new.. as far as customizing your exhaust, you could get rid of the cat converters by replacing the gaps with straight pipes and tone it with any muffler you like..
