Interesting 3D printed scoop. It's not visually appealing but if it works I'm not too worried about it. I noticed the filter they include is dry. I gave it a quick/light shot of K&N oil. The housing itself and sensor tube are real CF. Very cool.
Until they update their website with actual mail out times or give this forum a notice of order to ship times. Keep them on probation notice. I'm 2 days away from 3 weeks of ordering. I feel like had I not told them I was canceling my order it would have taken longer.

make sure that you do not Over tighten the Band clamp at the Intake Snout,
It is a bit flimsy, and it does not take much to Break the Thing
FYI -I wouldn't go posting your personal INFO in a open Public Forum! Zljb1 said:Hi everyone,
Very relevant to MDesign Performance, although I have a BMW 335i (E90):
I would NOT recommend purchasing anything from MDesign Performance. They have no customer service phone number posted online, or provided after you place your order. They have also have no customer service email - the only contact you will receive is by emailing the sales department and hoping they reply.
My experience:
-May 17, 2018: Ordered MDesign Performance Cold Air Intake for BMW 335i (E90 - Photo 1)

-July 31, 2018: Was told by email my order 'is awaiting completion fo the carbon fiber mass air sensor charge pipe to be completed' and that I will 'be receiving a USPS tracking number shortly' (if only - Photo 2)
![]()
-September 20, 2018: Was provided an email stating that my order has been shipped (extremely misleading, as the tracking number within this email was not recognized by USPS, and nothing was actually shipped to me - Photo 3)

-January 25, 2019: After posting on various MDesign social media (Instagram, Facebook) as to my experience with their company, and my disappointment, I was contacted by Instagram direct message, saying "we have sent you out a Carbon Cold Air Intake system", and I will "receive an email shortly with the tracking information" (sounds similar to what I was told on July 31 2018! Photo 4)

-February 8, 2019: Photos 5 & 6 - I don't know whether to laugh or cry at the continuous excuses and misleading information I am being provided. In the 10 years I have been a car enthusiast, this has been the longest, most painful parts buying experience I have encountered. After 8, almost 9 months since ordering my MDesign Performance Cold Air Intake, I still have not received an authentic tracking email, or my order.

I hereby caution everyone from purchasing any products from MDesign Performance. This is a highly unpolished, unprofessional company without a customer service department, that has stolen my $330 USD, and after almost 9 months, has yet to provide me with the product I paid for. I have sent 22 emails to MDesign Performance over this period, and have not received one authentic, informative, helpful response. ALthough I have left my phone number and asked to be called multiple times, no one from the company has reached out by phone to apologize, explain, or provide me with an update. DO NOT BUY FROM MDESIGN PERFORMANCE!
