  • Bimmer and the Bilsteins....

    Hey all, I requested a quote from bimmer on bilstein HD shocks on all corners of my 01 firebird. they replied promptly the next mornin' and i was thrilled at the 289.88 price quote...upon my "checking" of my parts to make sure they were correct before purchasing.. i noticed that of the three selections of bilstein HDs' one name (under the brand column) is actually bilstein while the other two (the ones bimmer quoted me for) are of the brand name SPECORD or somthing...so far my first quote was 289 and now its 291 for the same thing...maybe if i get a few more quotes i can order the cheapest one they give me hehhee. anyway i just wanted to know why the brand name was SPECORD and not BILSTEIN even though they are BILSTEIN HDS!!!!! thanks

    What are the part numbers that they are quoting you on? Have you called them to verify?

      I ordered mine through bimmerparts.com and had absolutely no problems. I'm guessing there was an error somewhere, there should be no problems in ordering from them. [img]smile.gif[/img]

              I ordered some for my car when I lowered it a month or two back. The price was 320 shipped. Are you sure you got the Bilstein HDs for your car? What part numbers did you order? I'm not doubting you, or upset (cause at 320, it's still not a rip off), but my buddy is about to order him a set too, and if the price has come down, he's goin for it.

                yea the part numbers are B46-1913,14
                i asked for a quote twice and the first time i got 289 and the second time i got 291 so maybe if you try a third time, they will give you a better price! lol ill just use the first quote...UNFORTUNATELY I ORDERED TIRES TODAY AND IT COST ME 900.00$$$$ owch....my wallet has just died. i only work 3 or so hours each day at 8.50 an hour and im in highschool so thats just like destroyed my financial life.... shocks in 2 months i guess &gt; :(

                  B46-1913,14 are the correct part numbers.

                    I know this is an old thread, but how did they quote you for $290? When it's added up it costs
                    $340.76... do they give you a price cut when you get all 4?

[img]smile.gif[/img] good luck, i LOVE mine, install em yourself but dont bust a brake line... there are several good write ups online here, follow one, its good stuff, the rear is actually kinda fun... the fronts took me 11 hours, but most of that time was spent compressing the springs... sunsov*****es....

                            How did you get it for the $290-ish price? Did you have to email them for a quote on all 4?
