Sway Bar End Links

I am going to be replacing the front sway bar end links on my e70. I was going to order the genuine bmw ones but I wanted to see if anyone on here recommends anything else. Thanks in advance for any input.

Any of the German OEM suppliers would be the same part, probably for cheaper.... Lemforder, Febi, Mahle, etc. I usually use the following websites for ordering BMW parts:

fcpeuro.com
rmeuropean.com
autohasaz.com

They usually have the best prices and free shipping, if you spend over a reasonable amount.

Don't forget ECSTuning....I've used Lemforder and Meyle both perfect fitments. FYI I had FCP beat a price of the same item from ECS, I was already ordering other items so I just told them I needed another part but it was cheaper on ECS. Pretty sure ECS would match or beat FCP also...

Thanks for your input, I do use ECS quite a lot.

Just take a look at the bushings. I happened to notice mine were flat/cracked so I replaced them. Easy enough to do and cheap. If you do one side, do both.
