Okay so I just got a qoute for the work.
I was gonna go with just the dampers but the guy at the shop somehow talked me into getting Koni adjustable coil overs, I want to keep the stock ride height though or maybe just a CM lower as I go through some narrow bumps at times.
if I were in your situation bselim3 I would get the bilsteins, I just might too, I am really undecided on dampers only or coil overs.
I would really like to know if the shocks alone really go with the M sport springs. If there is any chance they dont I will go with coil overs.
He tried to say I dont need rear bushings but I know I do and I want them so I dont get a disconnected feeling on the rear.
These are the prices I got, keep in mind I am in Australia where everything is more expensive! tyres are double the price but I am excluding them here.
cobb tune 995 supplied + 90 installed
airfilter install 50
fit tyres 80
I am gonna get PSS tyres.
M3 control arms + bushings 470
I am NOT getting sway bars as I do not track the car.
M3 rear subframe bushings 270 supplied + 1000 installed
koni shocks 6-800 supplied +500 installed
OR
coil overs 1299 supplied + 450 installed
I am most excited with the M3 control arms and PSS as it will make the car feel even more awesome
Edit I am now tossing up between a non adjustable kit and this:

I have contacted Bilstein to see if it designed for non RFT, or can this be answered here?
