Most of the people here are in Cali so everyone's got networking all over the state, but what about in other places, like Chicago? I'd rather not have to take the 40 min. drive to the city, but maybe the Chicagoland area? If I were to purchase springs and perhaps a bumper, any idea on some good places?

Any OEM parts should be purchased from Gary at Newport BMW.
He always has the best prices.

As far as springs or any aftermarket part you're better off doing the research on this website
and purchasing online. Then go to a shop for installation.

If you buy the part from the shop you will always pay more.

The guys at Trinity have very competitive pricing on lots of aftermarket parts.

I guess I wasn't clear. I was going to be buying all the stuff from people on here; I've been bothering members with questions for quite some time now, but I was talking about actually getting the springs and bumpers installed.

Fall Line Motorsports
Glenview or Northbrook

They're licensed Dinan installers and they build E46 racecars. They swapped out my CDV.
