if Im not wrong and I may be.. these are made in the far east? little or no R&D and I would imagine not a lot of service when they go wrong.

In suspension money will buy you the best!

why put some shit on when BMW have done loads of R&D and the OEM really stuff can not be faulted, it may get tired after 10 years, as any would, either put OEM back on or save up for a decent set up, again, all IMO

CSL is still. £20k + car, built with a particular performance in mind. Please dont ruin the car by putting cheap dampers on it.

They are complicated bits of kit, not just ways of dropping the car 2". You would do much better refreshing ir renewing the OEM sachs dampers than buying Lidl versions.
