hi

I have a red 318i on a H red. its standard at the moment except bbs's. I've seen a few bodykits on egay and was wondering would the following links be decent kits or a pile of sh*t?

Or if any1 has genuine m-tech kits pm me please and 2 door leathers :cool:

thanks

p.s does anybody know where i can by 60/40 springs? 60mm at the front and 40mm on the back?

None of those will fit your car, they are for a pre-facelift model.

I would not really recommend just using lowering springs on there own.

Shorter springs can cause standard shocks to fail a lot quicker. As a rule of thumb, some people will say upto -40mm on standard shocks is "OK". But anything more will cause bad handling.
