H&R coilover going on my e90 2011 335i xdrive

Hello suspension gurus!

I am having a shop put my coilover kit on mid April. When I do this should I have them replace anything (bushings) while they are in there?

Thanks!

What's the mileage on the car? Imho it's not worth replacing parts if they are perfectly fine. A lot of extreme opinions on this forum, but I tend to disagree. Best reasonable approach would be to let the mechanics check everything and only replace something if it's worn out. Bushings are supposed to last up to 200k miles in theory
