They're yellow, with nuts on the ends.

K r: I've just done the rear so far. These are the sixth set I've installed in my various BMWs over the years, and they still haven't offered proper instructions. There's a large concave washer, and I installed it in the wrong place, had to do the job over again, my right wrist is hurting badly. I drove over my local curvy gravel roads last night, and the car felt great, much more stable. When my wrist heals, I'll install the fronts. For pictures, Google Bilstein.

Hi: finally installed all four. The car rides like a dream, I can feel every bump, but gently. I don't know why BMW doesn't install these at the factory. I've added them to 6 cars so far.
