Rear bump stop

Hi all,

I just changed all shocks with Bilstein B4 on my 03' 3.0 E85
And I think rear axle it is much more stiffer than stock shocks so I'm wondering where's the problem.
When I looked for rear bump stops I thought E46 might use the same one so I ordered them. (like this https://goo.gl/HSifH6)
I just found out it's not the same one and E85 bump stops are smaller than E46.
Is that the reason why I think rear axle is stiffer than before?
 
I recently had the springs and dampers replaced on my 2007 Coupe- bilstein b4 as well- and I got genuine BMW bump stops as they are not expensive and you know you're getting the right size part as well.
 
I'm just wondering the OEM one on ebay is around 30USD per damper isn't that a lil expensive compare to front ones?
 
I got mine from BMW main dealer for £15 each (that included the protection collar). The front axel were £12.92 each

If your original bump stops show no damage/brittleness then you could just re-use those.

If you're in US, perhaps they charge a bit more!
