I fail.
BMW batts are beefy AF. They can certainly handle an extra 250w or so. You will be fine.
I would get the little mono and not have to worry about bridging the 4 channel.

Stock electrical should be able to support a few hundred watts amp just fine. About the 1000W mark is where you start to look into electrical upgrades, and even then depending on your listening habits, stock with just a premium parts store AGM type battery should do the job.
The W7 could probably hang with a bigger amp though. Warrantied up to 500W implies you should be able to run a 500W rated amp to it. Might want to keep an eye on over excursion but having that little extra power on tap might come in handy. JL 500/1 has always been a ballsy little amp (best selling amp of all time), can't vouch for the current models but I'd have high expectations if you don't mind the JL price tag.

You're not going to know until you test with a meter. Typically even carpeting a box as opposed to painting is going to lose a few tenths.
