+1, this will be the 4th vehicle I have lowered and this is by far my favorite one. Drives better than factory.

I'm also going to order some of these from r33_RGSport , what should I expect to pay if dealer installs? I have a few friends that own other shops...but for suspension I might go with BMW install if it doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

I couldn’t get BMW to do it, they declined the work on aftermarket mods. (BMW in Germany, not sure about US)

Yeah, I’m still happy with the springs. I really like the ride quality, I feel that it’s better than stock and improves handling/comfort. If you’re asking, I’d recommend going for it. If you’re looking for a deeper drop and harsh ride, go with H&R (from what ive read).
Cheers!

I think Ben's price is actually better anyways so it's a win-win. I'll be ordering the springs from him as well if I decide on lowering.
Didn't think Ben sells the eibach. He sells the ACS version. Which may be eibach rebranded.

I do sell Eibach that Eibach NA offers.
Eibach NA doesn't offer the set for self-leveling suspension.
I only can offer ACS or H&R for self-leveling.

Depends how do you mean by DHP performance.
DHP is a package deal that BMW puts together as top of the line option for the suspension package.
It consist of Active Swaybar, Dynamic Damper or Electronic Damper or some other term they called it.
With lowering, you are only changing the spring.
So, you are only affecting the spring part. The Electronic damper will still work and active swaybar will also still work.
