Anyone lowering?

OK, so i've never modded a car before but i really feel the 1er needs to be dropped a little to look it's best. I've been looking for lowering springs from uk sites and can't find anything for the E82, only the E87. Are these the same suspension set ups, as far as i know they are slightly different?

Also, i'd be interested if anyone else is considering to do the same with their 1er, if so what have you gone for? I think i'm gonna go down the route of H&R springs, maybe about 50mm at the front and 30mm at the rear.

If anyone can provide any insight as to where might be the best place to try it'd be much appreciated!

Oh i forgot to ask, how does having the m sports suspension affect this mod?

Cheers

Graham
