Fair question.Its due to me expecting mine to look like this:

If its not necessary,I obviously won't bother.However,if I do end up changing other bits,I think to skimp at that point would be a false economy!
Picture c/o Parapaul's useful thread btw...

The B4 sport dampers were a pig to find - hang on and I'll see what I can dig up.

Cheers-I've gotten nowhere!

Right. I bought my dampers on Ebay because that was the cheapest at the time. YMMV.

Front dampers ebay item no 280865507274, Bilstein part no 22-135032 (L) 22-135049 (R)
Rear dampers ebay item no 270958380453, Bilstein part no 19-135052 (x2)

HTH

It does-thanks.Back to research mode!
Anything else worth considering,to make the whole experience relatively painless?

Can't think of anything, particularly if an indy is doing it for you.

You already covered bump stops - mine were in that state and mine's a 2007 car. If yours is anything approaching that age it's probably worth replacing them, either with the same or shorter ones.

Then a 4 wheel alignment a week or so after you've had it all fitted - very important.
