E61 Wagon Level Control System Malfunction

I just installed Bimmer Worlds ISC Coil Overs on all four corners with the dampening adjustment. The system they sold me works great. Along with the19" Michelin tires and 740IL wheels, the car handle's like it is on rails without giving up the smooth ride of my 2008 535XI Sport Wagon. Now all I need is for someone to tell me how to fool the air ride computer into thinking the rear air bags are still there and get the ugly Malfunction statement on the display to go out. I suppose I could hook up an air canister and plumb the air bag lines to it, but that is a long day to do that. I was hoping for a simpler more elegant way to turn the Malfunction Warning's off. Thanks for your time, I love this forum.

Ideally you would code out the system from the Vehicle Order with something like NCS Expert. Then you could remove the module in the trunk and any components you want and have no errors.
