Feb/bilstein is as good as Lemforder and both are suppliers of original parts to BMW, Meyle are ok but as with most things it depends on the joint/bushing/loading etc etc

Most lemforder stuff will have the BMW roundel ground or machined off. The rear drop links are the easyest to see it on, a bit of machining right in the middle to remove "BMW"

Meyle stuff is good especially the HD stuff which has a 4 year warranty. Ive used their droplinks on loads of cars with no issues.

I've come across a lot of lemforder/febi stuff with the BMW badge ground off.

Meyle is very hit and miss. A lot of Chinese crap involved but that's the case for a lot of companies now - even Hella tads seem to be stamped with 'made in PRC' and they're junk.
