Looks great! Where did you get the lowering kit and approximately how much if you don't mind divulging? I'd like to do this to my 04 4.4 once i switch to 20s.

The H&R springs and links were $280 from TireRack. Think I got the last set they had in stock, but you could call them and ask for Luke. He'll know status on other parts coming in, and is a good guy to work with there.

Labor to do the swap of parts and then align was about $350 or 400. I'll have to look up the exact amount because the bill I paid was for this work on the X5 as well as a trans control module I had replaced on my 528i. But the tech said the rear links were maybe half a hour total, so the bulk of the labor was in the two front springs. 4 wheel alignment at this shop is $125.
