This was something that sometimes happened on the F30. Based on what you're describing, something like this could be a possibility if the G80 has similar sensors.

I'm wondering if either:

B. The shop that installed my springs and spacers adjusted as salespunk describes and made an over correction.

I sincerely feel like with my experience vs with what you all are sharing points to something not being right with mine.

I'm not an overly sensitive person lol, I assure you I can drag a county road heading home for 1-2 miles and I can have multiple different parties independently flash me as they pass.
Check left front and rear. This thread helped me diagnose my rear sensor that even though it was connected, was connected incorrectly.

Now I don’t have a G8X so your sensors might be different

My response is to do the same and actually show them the high beam. Only then has it registered to them that maybe it's just a pickup truck that's higher than their car .

For their lack of brain use , I take great pleasure in blinding them.
Ohhhh the irony 🥳

I’m still waiting to get my car back from service on unrelated item- I’m assuming after reading a related thread on how to ironically raise his headlights, that someone prob over corrected mine when installed professionally and I’m going to dial it down a turn or two. Will report back in case anyone else has issue.
