Finally Ordered Coilovers! Need some help with the accessories..K-MAC, spacers, etc..>>
After doing a bit of research here I have compiled my list of suspension mods for a 225Q with 18 x 8 Hartmann RS4s with an offset of 35:
1. Koni Coilovers - On the way!!
2. Nuespeed 19MM Rear Sway-Box in the Garage!
3. K-MAC 1/2 kit-I will not lower more than 1"
4. Spacers - 20mm Rear amd 15MM Front
5. Strut Mounts and Bearings
Just a couple of questions though:
1. Are 20mm Rear Sapcers and 15mm Rear Spacers the correct size? Where is the best place to purchase on-line?
2. Where is the best place get the 1/2 K-MAC and Strut Mounts and Bearings?
3. Have I missed anything?
4. What should I expect to pay a shop to install the everything except the spacers?
Thanks for the help Guys!

Not what you asked for but....
If you're not going to lower more than 1" coilovers are overkill - unless you're going to track the car and play with the damping settings.
Anyway, you can get a 1/2 KMAC from tt-stuff. The spacers sound about right. The strut mounts and bearings can be had from the dealer pretty cheap and the full install at a decent shop will cost you about $400-500. Drive it or let it sit for a few days and then get it aligned. Figure an extra $100 for that.
