Bro, i changed already at Albert last two month..price slightly higher with all items purchased from Bavarian Auto. Its up to u to decide lah as minimal difference in price but nobody knows how long it'll last...

Its better for u to refer to Albert for this

Just be a bit cautious when buying from an unknown source. It maybe cheap and take note that advert mentioned it is OEM "quality" meaning the camber strut is actually not OEM i.e. Lemforder. Many China made so called OEM quality parts are in Malaysia now and buy only from trusted sources.

that's why they call it OEM quality....not OEM...hehe.

IMHO, for mechanical / engine parts, do use BMW OEM parts. Slightly more, but quality is assured. Plus, these are the stuff your life depends on when driving. No point saving a few bucks for these things..

When I changed my control arms for my E32 I bought OEM parts from a local BMW parts shop..but had problems sorting out shimmy & vibrations for a good 2 years plus..entailing changing bushes, arms, rods etc after using the parts for 3-6 months.

Finally my mech suggested going back to Ori parts which I duly got from Eng Soon SG...walah..now rides smoothly. I agree with andrewk..for mechanical/engine parts better to go ori or BMW OEM parts from TRUSTED BMW parts shops. The cost may have been cheaper initially but after my experience..buying ori may set you back a bit more initially but saves you a ton of hassle...& makes you love your ride more. Not to mention saving your wallet in the long run as repeated replacement & labour charges add up to more expensive bills.
