        Apparently, Yes!

        I shall try to contact one of the manufacturers and see if they can make something for me.

        Not sure if they will accept or how much it will cost.

        I am assuming that they would have made a mould already if it were ecomically viable.

          Try emailing Powerflex, they don't have them listed in their catalog but they might be able to make them. TAM are dealers of Powerflex products in UAE as well.

            I wonder why no one made these for the E60 and E63?!

              Thats probably because these are not track - club cars.

                  Nope! I think they are too expensive to run as track cars. I mean the maintenance will kill you. :(

                  This is why I have got to get me a good fun car for tracking and drifting. :1stcup:

                      For sure!

                      I think these weak bushings go bad even without tracking the beast. Just takes more time!

                        Indeed! BMW should have used the PU Bushings in the first place.

                          PU bushings require different manufacturing processes and are much less comfortable then the standard webbed rubber units supplied with the car.

                          Ze Germans didn't want to spend more money making them, more money through R&D for them to be used on a daily basis (stronger arms, bushing inserts, more forces on all other components) therefore making you spend more and making the ride harsher than it already is.

                          Yes, the handling would be better, but they were already satisfied with rubber units on the Nurburgring so it was perfectly fine.

                          And, where's the fun in upgrading if they gave you the car fully prepped?
