Default Bilstein Rubber Bump Stops Replacements

My Bilstein Sport(FE 4)shocks have rubber bump stops that are destroyed. I lowered the car two years ago and did 160 miles at pocono north course and that took care of the left front bump stop...now in pieces
Anybody have any ideas on where to find replacement rubber(or poly) parts for shocks?
The Bilstein website doesn't seem to provide any way to contact them and local auto parts store are clueless.

Double check your ride height vs shock travel. Running too low is a great way of bottoming out a shock which causes these issues. I may have a couple around the shop (I'll check in the AM) or you can get ahold of Bilstien

I have no experience with these folks, but they seem to have a huge selection of bump rubbers: http://www.resuspension.com/Bump-Stops-p-1-c-92.html
