I bought my H&R front and rear set from Andrew@SouthernBM a few years ago and they operate very well. AFAIK a number of people opt for M3 bars also. I'd always look at bars as one aspect of a complete setup. Rear takes a bit to install.

I was talking to Vinney today and we both agreed that suspension should be the starting point for these cars, they're a far greater pleasure to drive with a well sorted setup.

After reading up, I decided to order an M3 E93 front sway bar that is currently on its way.

is it worth doing the rears? or everyone just doing the fronts?

There's a little bit of debate on this point but most believe that you shouldn't make the rear any stiffer without adding an LSD... It's also a pain in the arse to do...
