i emailed a shop here in bris that does KW coilovers to suit they range in price from $1759 - $2939 fitting is $350. www.prestigeandperformance.com.au

I spoke to prestige and i think the v1 with inox is 1900 plus, so probably same as southern bm's price.
Might ask andrew how much the sway bar is.

Dunno if it's changed but mine were $1,879 to my door from Andrew.

Sounds about right. I got mine for 1938 and I got charged 4 hours of labour.

Not only is that a great price but it also supports a vendor who supports us - win-win.

[130iguy]

anyone know of a good vendor for Bilstein stuff??

My thoughts exactly. If only he was in Sydney though!

She's been slammed and I could feel the difference straight away. It was like I was driving a boat previously.

Yeah as soon as you do some good suspension mods the first thing you do is wonder why you put up with the stock setup for so long. I'm looking at finishing my suspension off in the next couple of months so I can move on to the next part of the project.

Sorry if the pricing is changing a bit lately, keep checking with me though, but as you may be able to tell by my recent posts, i am really really really working hard on all my pricing. I have been talking to vendors overseas and locally, asking for deals, talking to freight companies, reducing overheads, all to bring pricing down for local BMW enthusiasts. No doubt i want to supply as many of you as i can, rather then you all going overseas.

How low did you go?

Handling is so good now right!

I recently bought some kw v1 as well.. for an e93 335i... whats the verdict for how low I should go? I'm after the same look... ie. not slammed but not stock either.. just a 'good' lowered height that I don't have to worry about navigating speed bumps with

20mm?

I know mate! Amazing change. Here's a real quick snap:

30mm drop, apparently they're on the highest. Gonna let it settle and maybe wind it down a bit more

I did tyres as well, so now it actually handles like it's on rails.

That's about right. Your car should look sick!

[MikeVictor]

Looks good JB.

[RaihaX]

Just slightly higher then mine I'm on 35mm drop. I think 20mm would be very close to stock height

[JB4-335]

Looks nice Jeef.
I'm sure it a completely new car.
