I called yesterday the 27th and they still have not arrived. They are unsure when it will arrive as it was supposed to arrive the 26th.
They also mentioned that Eibach is not returning their calls. If this continues into next week, i will be cancelling my order...this is pretty ridiculous for a BMW tuner to not have control over its own inventory.

I find this pretty annoying... :mad:  and I don't even have any springs on order!  You guys are a lot more patient than I would be.  ;)

BALLS.  i am calling them today and probably going to change my order to a set of H&Rs. i saved a lot by ordering my bilsteins on sale at bav auto so i dont mind the extra 50 bucks if i can get them somewhat on time.

Crap what shock mounts are you guys getting? IE is out of theirs and now I'm stuck...What about E36 shock mounts?

Turner has some great heavy duty rubber reinforced ones going for i think $90, i will probably go OE rubber though.

Most of the aftermarket units that work on the E36 should work, so you've got Ground Control, JTD, Rogue Engineering and others.  Turner (and DasAutoSport.com) have a JTD unit that's labeled as a heavy duty OE-like replacement which is only about $20-$30.

If you want to go with OE parts, I went with E46M3/convertible mounts on my car (HDs and stock springs).

Happy 4th!!!

I feel bad for you guys waiting on these springs for so long.  Doesn't anyone know of a place where everyone who's waiting could just put in a small group buy of the H&R Race springs and be done with the wait?  What a PITA!

yeah i just didnt plan on the wait. if i find out they dont have them in yet, i dont mind paying the extra for the HR Races.  Unless i hear of a backorder...
