Default e39 air ride. is cheap possible?

hey all. i've messed around with the idea of bagging my e39 528i.except being a college kid on a budget makes that a fairly difficult task

anyone know of someone doing a custom setup for cheap?
i looked on bagriders and i know they've got a setup for 2700 with manual management.

currently on cheap coils, looking to ditch them soon.
thanks all!

Aerosports for a Bag over coil setup, bagriders manual management. Thats cheap, won't be the best though.

YOU ARE CORRECT! We haven't had the time to get a page up yet. That said, give Bag Riders or Open Road Tuning a call. they have the kits in stock. Hit me up if you have any questions. It is my car in the pics! Thanks to Corey at ORT for this awesome shot.

You could do a bag over coil setup up front but the rear is going to be an issue because of space. If you're handy with a welder, Air Lift has a full line of universal struts which would be less expensive for the rear but they won't be fully threaded and you'll have to spend some time making them work.

I am also interested in this as I came away from SoWo with the idea of bagging my E39 also. still, i don't know much about air bag systems anyway. Can someone explain the difference between the manual management and all the other ones?
