Lowering kit? no idea. Best low beam bulbs? I'm a fan of the silver star hyper whites. No modifications needed, lots of clean white light.

If you're going that route you might as well just pull the engine and tranny out, and drop in a built and blown 440 or something with a 727 torque flight. Don't forget the hood cutout with the bird catcher either, might as well go all the way...............

Lowering front end of '88 E32

I have same query as Pico. Trying to lover front end of my 1988 E32 735i.
May be another issue causing this but my car sits up high at front end, as if someone has previously lowered rear only.
Thanks to this when at speed the front lift and steering goes light.
Any suggestions as to a) where to source (in UK) lowering springs just for front (no need for shocks, they're new), or b) if it's NOT lowered at the rear why it is sitting at an angle?
Thanks,
Andy.

My local tire shop has a kit available for about $650 installed. The H&R's drop the front 1.25" and the rear 1.0". Eibach is 1.3" in front .8" in the rear.

The tire shop informed me that there isn't any camber adjustment on the 735 so that if I lowered it I would be eating the front tires up rapidly. Mine also sits lower in the back but I don't want to keep buying tires every year.
