I've driven both Eibach and H&R (i have) on an E60 H&R are more tighter then Eibach but they still have a little bounce on highways with sudden inclines/declines.. but personally id say get H&R over eibach

Hmmm...maybe I should think twice about installing the Hamann lowering springs on my xi. Not too sure I want the bouncy ride. Doesn't H&R make their springs for Hamann or is it the other way around? Also, the xi doesn't have the true sport suspension, even though I have the sport package. Based on that, I think I met get that "bouncy" feel that you're talking about. Tough decision now...

i think if your car is lowered you will feel the road more, so bounce is expected over bumps, no matter the brand of springs. thats my opinion, i might be wrong 
Not to mention that regular performance tires would also help with road feel/feedback.
Hey, that ACS front lip of yours, how is it attached? Double sided tape? Screws on bottom? Thanks!

double sided tape and screws to hold them on the side for the acs. i wished i got the mtech front through, its so much better 
Yeah well the Mtech bumper is so much more $. The ACS doesn't look that bad tho. I may get it from ebay simply because it's so damn cheap.
