Bilstein Shock absorber protection kit 11-270263

Collection: BMW 3 Series E90 Suspension Parts

Suspension parts for the E90-generation BMW 3 Series, built 2004 to 2013. Covers all four bodies — E90 saloon, E91 Touring, E92 coupé and E93 cabriolet — which share the platform but differ at the rear axle, particularly the Touring.

How to choose

The Bilstein B4 restores factory ride quality on a worn car and is the right choice for a standard-height daily driver. B6 keeps standard springs but firms up damping for sharper turn-in — a popular choice on a car of this age whose dampers have softened. B12 pairs dampers with matched lowering springs as one tuned kit.

xDrive cars take different front dampers from rear-drive, and cars originally specified with M Sport suspension use different part numbers again. Check the chassis code on the door pillar sticker and your build month.
