You should see my post up top. I ordered mine and recieved them in 3 days, brand new condition. Juat waiting for next week to come by so I get these installed.

I will look.

My inquiry was about whether the cost/experience applied to orders shipped to Canada. Lots of people with forum profiles saying they're in Canada ship to friends in the US - hence my question

Unfortunately tunershop swears the bars won't fit my xi. *shrug*

Yes bars directly to Canada to my place. You will have to pay custom and taxes to UPS.

Jayphil said it fit perfectly into his xdrve thus the reason i bought them.

I took a look at sway bars on the car vs the one i got from h&r and the the design look exactly the same. Just h&r sways are thicker.

Still looking for someone in Houston interested in the front only.

Thanks - was that taxes plus a low fee or something ridiculous you owed to UPS? I've been burned by UPS before - owing 60-70% of an item's value for their "services"

Anyone else order for tunershop - are the H&R parts genuine, first quality? It's hard to ignore their pricing.

They're newness isn't the question - it would be whether they're knock offs or something like that. I know I wouldn't be able to tell authenticity/quality from Internet pics unfortunately. Thanks for the offer - can't hurt I guess....

It comes with an envelope that is directly from h&r with control # plus part number, instructions and all that stuff. And it is an h&r box with german language all over the box. I dont know, i guess i will find out the quality once i install it but they look legit to me.

That does indeed sound pretty legit....

I just put in an order hoping they fit yours so I can put mine on!

I got v3 coils on my xdrive too so I'm hoping this car is stealth when it comes to handling and cornering

Pretty much the only game in town for the X-drive.

Well the UPS international service used do not charge custom fee other than the taxes. Also I asked Tunershop to put 99$ on the proforma invoice so UPS taxes charge was around 15$ for me.

As said before these come in the original box directly from H&R Germany. If you still feel it is too good to be true, think of them being two overpriced metal studs painted matte blue.

1500 dollars and i would of bought them but 3k not a chance, ill just have to live with the height.

I rather spend 3k on a pure stage 2 turbo rather then coils :P

[lsturbointeg]

with the H&R SwayBars i wonder if adding these braces would also help improve the stability of the car? i inquired about these as they're from overseas but they couldn't confirm if it would work on the US f10's?

For those who worry about knock off or fake.....got them from tunershop! And only pay about $30.00 tax for bars to DHL.

Well - I'm not looking At coilovers just for "drop". None of the usual players make shocks for X drive and the F10 is just a floaty boat compared to all the other (option 704) BMWs I've had.

All I want I something akin to M5 or true 704 type tuning for my X Drive and I'm happy. Might end up with V3s. I would prefer V1 but they don't make them for X Drive
