Engine mounts?

Oh man, forget those M42 ones.  Yes, the ride is a LOT more comfy with the nice hydraulic ones...but ONE of the M42 stockers costs more than two of the E28 ones.  I will not lie, after puttin on the E28 ones, you will probably be pissed.  I was for about 2 days because everything that could rattle DID.  Well, the lighter flywheel really reeeeally didn't help, so with a stock FW it might not be so bad.  It was well worth it though.  It eliminated so much bogging...the throttle response was phenomenal.  I have done it on both of my 318iS's.

Enjoy.

Visit HERE for a plethora of 318iS stuff and some other randomness.  Would you say I have a, plethora, of pinatas?

Do these look ok?

I won't buy parts from Autohauz AZ anymore.  

They were real cheap on the OEM engine sensors, but everything else they sent me was non-OEM quality.  I'd be very careful about what you get.  I'd spend an extra few bucks and know exactly what you are getting.

I order almost everything from Bavarian Autosport.  

Yeah, it's often more expensive, but the stuff is all OEM and I've never had a problem with them.

So I ordered them from BMA today, man I didn't know it was priced each side!! $72/each... Well cheaper than everywhere else.
