How much for a set of h&r sport springs for my 87 325 , sedan shipped to 15122(business address)

I want to see if your cheaper then eBay lol

@Missouri , I spent around $500-$600 on the car already.

Bilstein sport shocks/struts -$460
Wide angle rear view mirror -$15
Fake suede steering wheel cover -$25
Euro style front license plate -$38
White led license plate lights-$14
Used drivers side mirror housing (mine was damaged) -$60
Like 6 cans of fabric/vinyl paint-$40


Didn't spend much but more to come

Are you looking for the OE sport springs (50404-5) or the regular sports springs (50406)?

The OE Sport Springs are a 1" drop all around.

Reg Sport Springs is 1.3" drop all around

Eiback pro kit drops them 1.8" front and 1.6" in the rear

if you are gonna do it, do it right. Though BBS reps or even some of the OEM wheels of the early/mid 90s 5 series would look very good.
