If you get another 135i put the 1addicts sticker on straight this time =D
Believe it or not I used a ruler. I think it's the angle of the photo.

The coverage of the side curtains is awesome. I don't think there's anything you can hit your head on with them deployed.

Main airbag is good design also. Almost completely open on the sides, so it deflates instantly. I'm not joking when I say the crash was completely painless, which is unreal.

I'm honestly thinking of springing for an E92 M3 after seeing how well the 1er held up. I know I'd feel safe
