Bump Stops

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
I have the KW v3 ordered and am wondering if I need to order new bump stops to go with it. My plan is to set it high enough so the tires never touch the fenders when hitting a bump at speed. But I'm wondering if there are bump stops available for people that do want to go lower.

Edit: nevermind. I see the bump stops are built into the shocks. I thought they were separate pieces that attach to the frame. From pictures, it looks like the M Performance coilovers have bigger bump stops than the KW V3's

Umm... which bits do you think are the bumpstops? The lower spring seats at the front, and the upper spring seats at the back are both thicker on the MP than the V3, but I'g be surprised if they worked as bumpstops.

Well, the rears on the M Performance are thinner then. Or at least they are on mine. The Fronts I'll have to check as I don't remember them being the same shape as those in the official pictures...

Yea, weird. I just got my KW V3's in and both bump stops are the same. Front and rear both look like this.
