Front struts on BMW - question

Post by Bob Pl »

I am putting new front struts on a 95 m3 coupe 120k miles. The struts do not come with any "extra" parts. Do I need to replace any hardware, spring pads (upper lower) bump stop? Thanks. I can get the stuff from Pelican parts, but it would be nice to know ahead & have it all b4 the job starts.

TIA

BTW, there's a BMW autocross event this Sunday in Fontana in case you want to take the M3 for a spin :)
