Nice

Yours look exactly what H&R states the drop would (looks good)... other pics that Ive seen make the H&R look like its dropped further on the G82.

The G80 on H&R doesnt drop the rear enough at all IMHO.

i think the H&Rs give it a nice rake. At least on the G82.

Agree--- the G80 gets too much rake as the front drops while the rear only gets .6 of an inch.

Rubbing at full lock w/ the 12mm?

Looks great!

LukeM15 · 10-04-2021, 05:11 PM

Yes on the G82 it looks the best. Not so much on the G80

I just got mine but getting them installed is not easy! I called around and getting ridiculous prices. I want too know how much labor time? The first shop said 7hrs $700, second said 9hrs $1,200, the third dealership wanted $2,559 including alignment lmao.

How could it be $250 if labor is 7+hrs possibly a side job but no shop going to do it for that price I wish.

It’s time for you to start finding someone that can do it on the side. Plenty of ppl That can but you just have to networking.

Even the shops that do this every day in SoCal are around 350 for springs and 450 for HAS.

Still though, those quotes are nuts. I’m having the same issue around me. Going to do it myself.

yeah I agree-- especially on an X drive which takes longer

250 for a drop is a bro deal as the shop is not doing any markup past their minimal per hour charge and per job charge.

Labor is 7 plus hours because they are going by what bmw dealers say it takes. It does not take that long

Those book time quotes are a SOB.

ChrisRoman · 10-11-2021, 06:01 PM

Took me 2-3 hours in my garage with a quick jack. Needed a friend to help wiggle out the 21mm bolt from the rear buckets, fronts were simple watching evolves YouTube video.

H&R just went to 18/15 Macht Schnell

marauder1 · 10-30-2021, 07:16 PM

These rates you're getting are they all for RWD? For AWD according to bmw you need to remove the entire knuckle, so control arms, tie rods, brakes, rotors, sensors etc to lower the strut with the knuckle.
