Ones made to OEM spec won't, but a company called silverline which trade on ebay make solid, camber adjustable top mounts, which will lower a bit.

If christophbmw still visits here, he can let you know as he fitted some on his, but I don't know if he swings by here anymore after scrapping his car. It might have some more details on his build thread if you can find it. Think it's titled Baur on Rota's or something.

there is always the E9x m3 top hats which will drop the front end another 15mm
if it's got t*ts or wheels it's bound to be trouble...............prove me wrong.

He means the complete 3 series range. E90/E91/E92/E93.

Do a search you may find the part number for the top mount you need.
