    Soup to nuts, what am I missing?

    So this sort of belongs in all the suspension topics, but I'll just post it here. I've just purchased the following:

    H&R front and rear springs on Bilstein sport struts and shocks
    Rear trailing arms with urethane bushings
    front slotted rotors, braided stainless steel rear brake lines
    race studs & nuts in place of BMW lug bolts
    heavy duty rear shock mounts
    Metal Masters brake pads
    CV joints and boots

    I want to go underneath the car, and replace everything. Things I've thought of are:
    Sway bar bushings and drop links - are there urethane/upgrades for these?
    Control arm bushings
    Subframe mount bushings
    Motor mounts

    Am I missing anything? Where can I go to get urethane versions of the above and anything else I'm missing?

    Instead of the control arm bushings, I went with the treehouse racing eyeball arms, worth the little extra money.

    I went with the IE poly subframe bushings (ireland engineering).

    IE also has poly motor and tranny mounts, I've purchased the motor mounts, but not installed them. There is also the differential mount. I didn't replace mine, and after switching to poly everything, there is definitely more of a clunk in the rear. Especially while engine braking.
