Rear strut brace - options...

funtime · 29-01-2011, 07:31 PM

As above, I need a rear strut brace and can't really find many available, it doesn't even have to be M3 specific as they are all the same dimensions across the rear turrets...

Does anyone run one? if so, whats the quality of it like and where did you get it etc?

I was round Shimmy's earlier today and he had a nice Racing Dynamics one but it works out at nearly £200 now with the exchange rates and shipping, which is too much for what it is.

Also don't want to spend silly money and go for the Thorney one @ over £700!!! (although it is AWESOME

)

Thanks, James

ac shnitzer do one, but i think its still £2-300. i bought mine about 7 years ago so it might be more now. also try ca autotech, they might have a cheaper one or a copy of the more expensive ones.

I bought that exact one and I sold it brand new for 400

But if you get a nice dealer they will give a bit of discount taking it under 400
