So, I bought a stock M3 spring/strut/shock set from a guy who was upgrading his new M3's suspension. I successfully replaced the rear suspensio with the new on my '99 328i. However, I've run into trouble with the front. Apparently the front m3 spring is a little different in shape from the 328i. The top spring seat from the 328i doesn't fit nicely over the M3 spring. Does anyone know if what I'm seeing means that I need to buy new top spring seats for the M3 spring and if that will allow me to get the job done, or do I also need to purchase the rest of the mounting apparatus that mounts the assembly to the shock tower?
I assume that I shouldn't try to force-fit the seat assembly on the top of the spring, right? Now that my car is half torn apart, I have no inclination to put the old suspension back on just to drive it...
Thanks!
Dave
