Then regarding daily driveability i'm coming from a not so great experience with anti roll bars, having chosen something too stiff for my needs on the rear, compromising comfort *and* grip, making me extra cautious when it comes to suspension mods.

Yet since the the F8x seem to need no bushings this kind of tells me it's the right thing to do.
+1.

I'm not included to do an "upgrade" like this because chances are I will only need to replace the original rear subframe and differential bushings once through the usable life of the car at most.

Also, it requires removing the rear subframe which is not an insignificant procedure.
