M3 Suspension Components Price Alert

I bought and installed front sways and control/tension arms from Tischer a short while ago. Price was $600 and change.

Just checked the site for someone who wondered what I got and - the PRICES have gone WAY UP!!!! The parts are now $800!!

HP Autowerks raised their prices recently as well. They said that BMW has increased the prices on these components.

You can hardly find them used, so you have to buy them. If you have used ones, you are now likely to find more buyers and higher prices!

Still, one of the best mods I've done.

The rear guide rod set actually went down in price by a lot. The largest increases where on the front retrofit set and the rear wishbone.

One would think they'd actually decrease for the coming winter and go up during the spring/summer months. Damn though. Glad I did mine this summer.

Prices on the M3 components have almost doubled since we started the R&D process back in 2008. As the demand of these parts increase so will the prices.

I am not surprised there is someone at BMW Parts Department watching what components are moving and raise the prices because of demand. The slower moving M3 components(e.g., M3 subframe bushings) have seen less price increase over the last 3 years.
