    B7 Alpina replacement shocks alternatives?

    Hello, my 07' B7 will need new shocks soon. Searching around, I may consider going aftermarket such as KW v3s considering how expensive the Bilstein factory replacements are.

    Only issue is there's not much of a database saying if suspension pieces on a non Alpina E65 will directly bolt on to an Alpina E65. I don't see why Alpina would alter this part, but who knows.

    Most sites says the suspension will not fit. Just making sure it's more of a lack of data for manufacturers to consider Alpina as a fitment.

    Thanks

    The most fun you can have with your clothes on.

    Alpina struts are the same as a 750i with the sport package
