Hi all looking at upgrading the suspension to the b12 kit and should really change the suspension top mounts front and rear. Scrolled through a few threads but can't really see and advice on branding of new top mounts or links to buy them. Before I go to the " sealers " has anyone got and advice which to buy online with any internet links

Kind regards

if you dont go OEM make sure you use the reinforcement plates!

Which brands oem ?

BMW is OEM.
What I mean is if you go for a smaller adjustable top mount make sure you use re-enforcement plates.
If you use a standard style or top mount then you don't need that.

Get this with the rear bump stops if you haven't already got new ones: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MEYLE-BMW...509493?hash=item1e7d23af35:g:dgIAAOSwcF9UU4qn

If you have just get this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-E30-E...662254?hash=item3cfa9d7a6e:g:Hd0AAOSwstxVZFsI

The B12 ront dampers have an integrated bump stop.

For the front mounts don't get Corteco, get Lemforder which is OEM. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2x-Suspen...del:Z4&hash=item5693832379:g:p~cAAOSw-0xYfnBz

Thanks so it's lenforder is oem NOT as in the previous post BMW, didn't think I was being stupid ! Thought it was lenforder or meyle

And the rear which are listed, will fit the z4 as there listed for e36/ E46 ? I know a few parts are interchangeable between e46 and e86 's
 
Yes they fit, I thought it said Z4 in the description too.

OEM = Original Equipment Manufacturer
BMW don't directly make most of their parts, Lemforder is the brand they fitted in this case.

I actually misunderstood your question. My reply was correct, if you buy over the counter, from BMW, its OEM.

Thats what I meant, stupid or otherwise.
