Thanks OP for this thread.
I was unaware of this thread and posted something similar in the 3-series forum, last week: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=739068 Thought you might be interested as it's another vendor carrying the TRW M3 Arms. I've since googled them and they turn up elsewhere, but not sure what to make of the vendors selling them. I'm thinking I'll eventually find them cheaper, as someone will put them on special or have a store-wide sale that will drop the price. |

Flinchy,
did you receive any additional emails from TRW or others regarding quality questions that you asked? Also based on my search, the rear end TRW parts( M3 rear guide rods) are almost same as OE M3 in price.

somewhat of an update
looks like ECS paid some attention to this thread possibly? http://www.ecstuning.com/BMW-E82-128...Arm/ES2586480/ they actually do the full kit as a single purchase now same price, heaps easier! on back order though looks like people have been buying it for sure haha i'm just deciding what to buy, i have a bit of spare cash before other things become more important, what to buy what to buy M3 front strut brace looks nice... M3 control arms look nice.. subframe bushings look nice :/ |

flinchy - yep I had my guys make a nice easy to find kit for everyone! It's a hair cheaper than buying the parts individually
As for the backorder, we're working to fix that as quickly as we can. I'll be announcing it's back as soon as we get confirmation the parts are in route to us once again! James |

$375 to $382.95 But shipping is $3 cheaper to australia (and free to USA) - so i guess it works out the same... Or close enough.. And shipping drops fast with multiple orders. Last edited by flinchy; 10-25-2012 at 11:16 PM.. |

Read the first post for second q If not purchasing the kit, the rod is a totally separate (but available) item. |

Great job everyone, really like how this topic evolved into a new mod path. Makes great sense for the lower end 1 series cars.

Does ECS Tuning sell TRW branded rear suspension in a kit as well? I can only seem to find Genuine BMW parts. Would be handy if they did, possibly group it like they did with the front suspension.
