oops didnt log in ^^^^.
I dont know if I`am going do it this weekend or next. I plan on installing front and rear bilstein shocks, h&r springs, pads, rotors, and front thrust arms. Ill take any advise given as well because I will most likely need it :x.

I installed Bilstein Sports and BA springs 2 weeks ago and have really enjoyed the improved handling. Much less body roll compared to stock setup. I cut the top third of the rear bump stop off. The fronts have an internal bump stop. The only other thing is, initially the car felt really stiff then after a few days/100 miles or so, the struts seemed to soften up a bit and the overall ride quality settled down. Good luck!

Just replace rear bilstiens on warranty from CA. This was after four years. I really enjoyed having the Bav Auto kit with new stops and spring seats etc. You may want to do the strut mount too while your there!
Warranty was a hassel but it worked out though not for free!
good luck
