Thanks again for your help!
im not sure how it will be on the standard suspension but H&R did design these springs to work with the standard shocks/dampers. you should pitch the question to someone with a base model/modern/luxury who have install this spring to see what their experience is.

the best setup tho would be to use H&R springs with a after market damper system like eibach or bilstein, etc.

All good. Interesting... 50% up from all the way compressed is kinda high engagement point.

Oh good thing I am not getting the BMW app then.

Is it confirmed that the Alarm system on the 335i with idrive - you can turn on a honk for unlock and lock?

hey ric how'd you remove the whiskers? I managed to get the thicker (inner) side off but the thinner parts are tightly clipped. Do I just use a little force to rip em off or is there a strategic way to do it? I didn't wanna break the clips so I didn't use too much force.

Funny story it was 1am I had the whiskers in my room and car was in the parking garage downstairs and I got bored. So I went down and I tried finding the clips to pull off but then I got frustrated and just used my hand and pulled the whiskers off. Notice only one clip on the whisker was broken but when will I ever put it back on?

Thought this looked cool, also look like the Navi HUD is telling me to drive through the bank doors. But Officer BMW Nav told me to rob the bank!
