Bilstein B6 Sport Performance Front Left Shock Absorber Strut (Nearside Front/LH) for BMW 6 Series F06 Gran Coupe 2012-2018 - Non-EDC/Non-Adaptive, Standard Suspension - Monotube Gas Damper - OE Direct-Fit Replacement Upgrade Shocker

Uprated Front Nearside Strut for BMW 6 Series Gran Coupé F06 - transform steering precision, stability and road feel while keeping everyday comfort. This gas-charged monotube unit is a straight swap for the left front on F06 models with standard suspension and no adaptive damping, giving you OE-level fit with a real-world performance lift.

Built with application-specific valving and a robust monotube design, this performance damper delivers crisp turn-in, flatter cornering and composed high-speed manners on British roads. Pair it with your factory coil springs at stock ride height for an immediate upgrade in control without the harshness of track-only setups.
