Also.... anyone mind if I drag the wife along? She has been under the weather, but she might be up to eat, if the guys are ok with this.

Rears are done. What a BIZZATCH!!!!! Now to tackle the fronts tomorrow.
Kleen, it's a tedious job but if you have worked on cars before and have a decent garage and tools, it can be done. .......or you can pay 600-800 euros and have the dealer install them.

So many cool models, trains and cars all in a small row haus in Tübingen, South of Stuttgart. http://www.boxenstop-tuebingen.de/ I also found out why Bob's user name is: Smellthebeans !!!

I did. Long story short, they're done and brakes are bled. All I have to do now is setup the G5 ISO board that came in friday and then i'll give my .02 cents on how they feel. Also, after this............I wish I still had my E30

Bob said there was a US spec e30 for sale in Stuttgart area/Panzer! You might wanna talk to him. I think it was cheap too <$1,800. Might be time to break the news to Mama.

I've heard that the Mainz BMW dealership is very anti-mod so I don't even want to ask for fear of getting a "bad name" with them.

There is no way this could happen. This is an "upgrade", not a mod. The bushing adds frame and suspension support to the vehicle. This is a BMW original part, which fits on ours and actually helps it out. For any dealership to frown upon that, is not heard of. Up to you though man, I'm sure some other guys on here could have of the same input. I think you're over-fearing seeing what the dealership could do for you. Our dealer here in Stuttgart loves my car, and I don't have one single BMW performance part lol.
