Will a stock sport suspension from an 08 535i fit on an 04 530i?

I imagine that it would fit. I don't believe the LCI changed anything about that. However, it sounds like a difficult endeavor and/or expensive mod considering the ARS, though I could definitely be wrong. But if you have access to the parts, go for it, and let us know how it comes out. In any case, good luck.

You should be able to change the springs and shocks but don't think you would want to go further than that. Check out realoem.com for the part numbers.

i wouldn't even try to retrofit ARS. a guy is selling his springs and shocks. the part numbers on Realoem are different numbers, but i still wouldn't think that it would cause it to not work.
