Default Upgrade to Sport Suspension?

The suspension on my car is pretty worn and I want to replace it. I have the standard suspension and was thinking now might be a good time to upgrade. I have compiled a list of OEM part numbers for the "M Sport" suspension from realoem.com

31129059288 - lower control arm bushings
31351091308 - front sway bar
31351140188 - front sway bar bushing
31311090715 - left front strut
31311090716 - right front strut
31331133513 - front bump stop
33521091630 - rear shock
33551090317 - rear sway bar
33551129700 - rear sway bar bushing

I can't find part numbers for the front and rear springs. Does anyone know where I can find those part numbers? Also, are there any other parts I have missed?

For the money, would I be better off with aftermarket parts instead?

I'm not looking for a track car, just a sporty street car with a mild drop.

I have already replaced the lower control arm bushings with M3 solid bushings. Is it worth replacing them again with the "M Sport" LCAB's?
