BTW, I sell the KSports for $925 shipped and provide full 100% install support. I've done it so many times, I know the tips and tricks to make your install a breeze.

I am thinking about purchasing and installing a set of Ksports. What is needed for the install? I want to see what all is involved before I pull the trigger!

Would you be surprised to know that the majority of BMW owners are lowered?

I'm not, but what's with the honda civic reference? It makes zero sense. Many car owners from BMW's, Mercedes, Audi's, Porsches, Lambos, have done suspension modifications, along with many other modifications.

A modification doesn't make it a cheaper car, it makes the car you own more suited for your needs and driving style.

It's an easy install you just have to have patience, the proper tools, and a buddy to help. Since these are coilovers and simply plug-n-play, you won't need a spring compressor. You just remove the old shock assembly and slip the KSports in. The height adjustment can be a bit tricky but I have a diagram showing how to do it.
