I'm looking to lower the unicorn but keep the EDC functionality, and since I've never even considered this with a prior car, I literally have no clue what I'm doing.
The only thing I know so far is the KW setup is about half the price of the Bilstein.
If I've failed to , my apologies, and pls point a brother in the right direction.
Honestly, it seems the biggest problem with Bilstein has been product availability. I haven't looked into it, but I'd imagine it takes a while to get them repaired as well if it is already taking forever to get new product. Bilstein is an OE for some German makes so perhaps there is a supply issue related to that business? As far as I know, KW is mainly an aftermarket supplier. While there are fewer KW users, I have not heard of availability issues with them.
