DIY Who can sell me some Koni FSD shock absorbers?

I want a set of Koni FSDs for my 2003 Cooper S Works.
Would anyone like to supply and fit them?
Or give me a good price on supply only.........

Lohen are the only place ive seen selling them, dont think they're that common so you might have trouble getting a 2nd hand set..

Or, you could get some genuine BMW JC Works dampers. Basically the same principal as FSDs, but with a lot more model-specific testing behind them. Cheap too...

Mike,
my car has the Sport Plus suspension and I don't want to lower or stiffen the suspension. I commute 11 miles through South London, I counted 84 speedhumps! I can see my strut mountings have broken up and I think the wishbone bushes are shot, the caster angle is down 1.5º to 3º 20' I'm running on 215 45 17 non runflats for maximum cushoning. I really don't want stiffer suspension and understand the FSDs will absorb the impact better.
