So, what I said to Tony yesterday, well that all went out the window after work. When I first asked Derek about his driveshaft, at that point the whole goal was to get the driveshaft done as cheaply as possible. So I received the driveshaft this week and yesterday when I went to go make my appointment to get it done, somehow I ended up making an appointment to not only install the driveshaft and a new CSB, but also to replace the shifter bushings, tranny mounts, and to install a BMW Performance shifter kit. I realized that all that stuff needs to get done while everything's taken apart, and as much as I didn't want to spend the money, at least now I can get it done without having to pay for labor again to do all of that. Derek's driveshaft allowed all of this to happen, so while saving money didn't quite work out, I'm getting a lot more bang for my buck than I would have originally. So, ultimately, it all worked out anyway...
BTW, BMW is having a fire sale on their Performance shifter kit. You get the Performance shifter, alcantara shift boot, the short shifter lever, and a clip (lol). The price is excellent; $142 plus shipping. I happened to get the kit through my indy for the same price but with much cheaper shipping. Here's a link on ECS's website, but that part number can be referenced and IF a dealer has it, you can buy it locally if you feel inclined. I will be selling the shift knob as I personally don't like it, so if anyone wants it, hit me up...

Good stuff BP, in the long run you'll save. Thanks for the heads up on the deal, you may want to post that in our Deal Thread too.
