Does anyone know the manufacturer of the OE M3 rear subframe bushings (#382, 383) - was there any name on them? I have found them in Lemförder's Teilekatalog while searching for E91 replacement parts (Bilstein B12 kit is on the way!). They look identical to the OE BMW bushings...

BMW: 33 31 2 283 382
Lem: 37798 01
BMW: 33 31 2 283 383
Lem: 37797 01

The Lemfoerder bushings are ca. €10 cheaper than OE (link)

It's weird that this has not been discovered; Lemfoerder makes standard non-M OE bushings (and other stuff obviously), TRW makes M suspension parts and yet almost no shop is selling these?

I saw them a while back, sadly their cost wasn't much different than OEM and the forums at the time were all over the Whiteline 2 piece upgrades.

They cost much less, but they are actually none M bushings, not the same as M bushings.

There is another brand out there. Will order those up and see if they have assumed the none M and the M take the same bushings too.
