Original Z4MC Suspension
Hi everyone,
As the title says, would like an original complete front and rear suspension.
Preferably from a lower mileage car but don't really mind if it's in good condition.
Just a note, needs to be a complete suspension with top mounts etc.
I've got a new B12 Pro Kit but don't have all the other bits needed to fit it to the car.
Located in Birmingham but can travel.
Thanks

Hello,
I have the complete original suspension. It was taken off a 2008 Z4M Coupe late in 2013 when the car had done around 28,000 miles.
Here's a photo from when I took the suspension off the car (if I've remembered how to add a photo).
I didn't clean it after removal and it's lying around somewhere in a box in my garage. Shouldn't think the condition will have changed much over the past seven and a half years.
Standard rear springs are prone to snapping. I think the problem is that once the powercoat starts to go, the rust starts to set in and it's then just a question of time. The powdercoat on the ones I removed from my car looked past its best

Sounds like you have a better offer, but I have a set of dampers and front springs from an 80k mileage M Coupe (...the rear springs had snapped) in a box in the garage.

What exactly do you need? When I did a B12 install I just got all new bits that weren't included, bolts etc. was only about £100 on top from Soper.
If you're putting new shocks and springs in I don't know why you wouldn't buy new top mounts.
