Do you guys happen to know the part numbers for the Dinan bumpstops? Is it just bumpstops, or also the dust gards? I already have H&R sports for my X-Drive F30, but I want to install the shorter bumpstops to give my suspesnion more travel on compression. My car is equiped with DHP also.

I see Dinan has these kits on their website, but I was curious exactly what OEM parts they are including. I would assume this is maybe $80 in OEM parts, and Dinan is jacking the price up to sell it to the public to make their profit.

I have heard the front bumpstops are off a E36 M3. I know a forum member on m3forum did a ZCP setup with H&R's and used 1996 M3 bumpstops, so I assume these are the same. Also, the rears may be from a E60 5 series. This is just talk on the forums, so I was trying to confirm. I guess ill just buy directly from Dinan.

Awesome…my review - had about two months - couldn't be happier!!

1. Drop - is perfect - couldn't be happier. Pics soon.
2. Feels fine over bumps (a bit more noticeable than comfort, but when i say a bit, that's it).
3. Handling - noticeable - very nice, flatter in the turns and just feels more responsive.
4. Very happy with this. Why not offer this set up for the drive m sports from the factory!

Here are some pics:
