mod and service on lease

Whattup guys,
I have a black 2011 328i and it is leased
Been doing all the exterior mods like tints, black grille, black logos, etc.
I also did one performance mod... an intake
If i need to get this car serviced, are they going to say anything about the intake or the tints or will they let it go until i need to give the car back?

It really depends on the dealership. Some are mod friendly, some are not.

Unless the part causes any issues it won't invalidate your warranty. Most service tech's won't bother saying anything to BMW NA about mods on a lease. Most will let it go.

Garage List
You will be fine with those at most places. Tints usually no issue and intake should be fine.
