i want to buy some bilstein b6 shocks, can anyone recomend a good seller please <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Cosmograph on this forum sells them, or did i think he may have supplier problems.

Give him a PM

he's not doing them anymore <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

I got my Bilstein sport shocks from Steve at AA. IIRC they cost me about £600 delivered. Not sure if they are B6 though <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

You could try fastjjs, he was selling them at a good price here

In Decembers Auto Italia Alternative Autos is advertising bilstein shock absorbers (2x front 2x rear) £365.95 + vat.

Not sure if these are the b6 though.

There is only one type of bilsteins available for the coupe, so they are all B6's

Come to think of it, my £600 included springs. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

italiatec.de got them, I got them from there. Not as cheap as fastis but ok.

Roger told me that Bilstein are no longer making them for the Coupe <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />

Hooray, more of a selling point for my car then <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> since it's got them on it <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> i've got up-rated arb's too <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

how much are you selling for craig?

Hi Joel, my cars in the for sale section, i'm asking £7800 ono for it.

thats a very nice looking plus & the bilsteins are a very good selling point

Cheers Joel, you've seen it mate in the metal (hop farm the other week) <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Let us know how you get on with the bilsteins compared to standard (never had a standard coupe, I bought the car with them on it & the arb's) <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

i thought your sig pic looked familiar <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> do you live near groombridge?

No mate, I live near Romford, Essex <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> yeah I cut the pic down for my sig, it's one you took at the meet <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

the last i heard bilstein had no pland to make any until the new year at the earliest.

not sure how it is now though.

Maybe I can offer some insight here. The original supply problem back in the summer has been resolved. There are currently supplies in Bilstein UK but there will probably be a similar sellout and supply problem again until word gets back to the factory that more are required. The factory tends to make them when thousands are required again which means long delays if you missed them first time round. One of the reasons I've given this up (for now)is that the supply of them is too hit or miss. You just end up disappointing customers which I'm not comfortable with. The other factor is that there is no longer any margin in it. To be honest Steve will be barely be making £50 on a car set which is pitiful considering the outlay and hassle involved. Anyone offering them cheaper than this needs their heads testing. As I found to my cost you may be able to offer a startling price as a one off but these just aren't sustainable on a long term basis.
