    Definetly do drop hats. $20 for both from the dealership . I wish I Installed mine first time around. Just installed them a couple of weeks ago and it definitely helps with the stance .

    I almost wish I did drop hats because of the rear wheel arches on late models. But I'm happy with the way it looks and rides. Don't scrape anything. Perfect for daily driving

    Installed the rear M3 drop springs today.

    With Bilstein sports and both original pads in place, the rear dropped from 24.5" to 23.5".

    Car looks like a tail-dragger right now, feels weird to drive with the front still at stock height.

    Fronts will go in next week. Debating on drop hats.

    Finally got these installed.

    I ordered the E30 M3 lowering springs which are a 1" drop, however, the stock ride height of the M3 is .5" lower than a standard 325i. I figured since there were no information of the spring rates, I might as well do M3 springs rather than 318i springs. I'm using brand new Bilstein sports with new Boge strut bearings in the front and the spring pads are still in the car. The ride feels a lot better than stock. The springs are soft enough to where it doesn't suck to drive on bumpy roads but stiffer than bav auto springs.

    Overall I'm happy with the springs especially for $70 shipped! I was too damn excited to put them in so I forgot to measure the stock springs but here's some pictures for reference.

    I was going to use drop hats but I think Im going to see how it sits with the extra weight from the 24v swap up front.
