I used to order all my stuff from BFBMW.com ... but when they moved and changed names, they stopped having the best prices.

I order mostly through BMAparts.com
I thought they had the best prices on Lemfoerder steering components, correct me if I'm wrong.

GCs - one set was new 2 years or so ago during a group buy. The other set was used

Konis - Brand new from EAP 4 parts before they became BFBMW a few years ago

Bilsteins - Used

Control arms, tie rod ends, Offset bushings - All new from BMW, EAP 4 parts and a buddy who used to sell e30 parts


FWIW - Sometimes trying to save a few pennies isn't worth it. Consolidate orders and order once and you can get a better discount and save on shipping. Nickle and diming the parts sources isn't always ideal, they all don't make killings on these petty items and it's very competitive.

well mine were around or under 300, but still i think that was cheap..  what other companies offer catalogs other than BMP and Bavarian Autosport?  BAvAuto is a little too New Englandy for me and BMP is too Texasish.

Yea $351 is what I paid shipped for my Bilstein sports during the sale.

Thats cheap compared to when I used to pay $375-450 for Koni/Bilstein shocks / struts for my vws.
