In talking with the shop (Turner motorsports, a known BMW specialist), they are suggesting I consider the rear guide rods and upper link arms while I'm at it.
My car is my DD and only used for frequent daily spirited driving - I don't track it.
I'd be interested to hear opinions on both the RSFB (if I already have inserts, is it worth it - bear in mind that my inserts have close to 50k miles - don't know if they wear...) and rear rods and arms (are they going to be felt and or worthwhile on a non-track car?).

The rear guide rods and upper link arms - are a sound upgrade. It will give your rear axle the alignment it needs since its lowered and camber'd out.
As for the M3/1M RSB's.... I guess it depends on the cost. Personally I love mine and they are worth the hassle to install. I would also suggest new DOT stainless steel brake lines too - since you have to drop the rear axle to install the RSB's.
