B12 Pro Kit for Z4M Coupe

[brownah]

Hi guys,

I've ordered a Bilstein B12 Pro Kit for 2006 Z4M Coupe.
The car is on coilovers which I'm going to ditch and I don't have the original suspension.

Can anyone advise what parts I need to order in terms of top mounts etc? Would like to refresh everything while I'm in there.

So far I'm going to get 1-7

And 2-13

Can anyone advise if this is everything or if I'm ordering extra parts for no reason?

Thanksn

You certainly don't need No.1 on the first diagram. That's just the metal top mount plate that the other bearings fit into, it shouldn't really wear and is expensive so not necessary IMO. You can always get the person fitting the kit to have a look while it's in bits if your concerned about that part specifically.

The rest seems ok but I don't know what the B12 kit comes with in terms of bump stops built in, protection tubes etc. You should be able to find some online fitting instructions for your kit which should tell you what the kit comes with and what OEM bits the kit needs to fit. The B16 kit at least has this info.
