Hi, require dust covers and bump stops for the front bilstein b4 shocks as they didn't come with any and the old ones are perished, part numbers or links will help greatly.

Thanks in advance.

Recently used these guys to purchase a voltage regulator.

Delivery is £10 and takes 3-5 working days but good value for money

Another recommendation for these guys. Recently bought B4 front legs, dust covers and rebound stops for an E39 from them at about 30% cheaper than CP4L.
Be careful as to what email address you give them - they've averaged about two spam emails a day, ever since.

Awesome guys, thanks for the input, after speaking to Barry (BSS) it would seem that the B4's use the tube's as opposed to the rubber boots as per B8's etc.

B4s use exactly the same two parts each side as the OEM legs did- a black plastic tube and a squashy yellow bit.

Also, if fitting B4s at the rear (they also come without dust covers), the cover and very important steel load spreading washer from the original OE dampers will fit the B4s.
