Default Best price on bilstein sport suspension package?

Take a look at this link. THis seems like a pretty good price for a full sport kit. Am I missing something? Anyone know of any better deal out there? DDM tuning and Bav Auto are both a bit pricier. Since my car is a base car, what else would I need to purchase to get this kit to work on my car? THanks guys.

CMUZYY on bimmerforums had the cheapest bilstein and h&r prices by far when I bought mine last summer.

Post in this thread, your car, what you want, and your zip and he'll get you a price.

That bilstein bts kit seems like a great deal, at first I thought that price was for the shocks/struts only.

I was under the impression that bilstein never made a bts kit for the ti though...

Interesting...so is the bts different from sport? something doesn't seem quite right...definiately want to make sure this kit is appropriate for a ti.

So, CMUZYY on bimmerforums quoted me 740 for the bilstein sports with HR springs. Looks like the 570.00 price at the Partsbin is going to be hard to beat.

You might want to search around on here about the bts kit. Most of the people who talk about it say bilstein never made a bts kit for the ti.

O.k. Just got off the phone with Bilstein. They are, quote, "shutting that vendor down." Apparently there was no BTS kit for our car, and this kit either: (1) doesn't truly fit our cars as represented in the ad; or (2) is pieced together with springs of unkown origin. According to him, the price listed is below wholesale, and this company is not an authorized distributor. Thanks for the heads up guys.
