did you spring for interior protection package?

Picking up 2016 535i tomorrow, very excited. This will be my 3rd 5'er having owned E39 and E60 with v8's before.

This one has Oyster Nappa Interior, Multicoutour seats. I just know that Oyster interior is going to need upkeep.

This might be the first time I spring for a protection package.

Thoughts?
Fair price to pay?

Do you have kids, then its worth it, we got it on my wife's mdx with tan interior, and even though we haven't had to use it yet, it was $500 well spent for peace of mind.

with that light colored interior and kids you'll need it.

Buddy of mine bought an x5 diesel for his wife with that same interior, and they constantly clean his front seats because of the blue that rubs off from their jeans.

my $.02

Yes worth it but I'd get it done from an independent shop that uses Gtecniq or Geon products. It'll be cheaper and is most likely a better quality product than what BMW would use
