if you search in the e55 w211 forum, there are a couple of topics about this. I see you purchaesd them already but arnott industries also have replacement ones for around 4-500 bucks each.

K sport and d2 are made by the same people
I bought k sport sport for my E but only because they are a local business here in AZ, so support would be much easier if I ever had any issues
Good luck!

What shop did you use here in Vegas? Just ordered coilovers. Just need the additional complete parts list now.
