Wiecher is a very cheap option for great Quality. Some might be stock items but invariably made to order.
Remember prices are in Euros. Give Dominik an email what exactly your after: dominik.greiner@wiechers-sport.de

Lovely isn't it.

We do all the design work on these, they use our cars for the work and we agree that they are exlcusive to us so we buy 10 of the things at £466 plus VAT each one. Onwer of Safety Devices dies so deal dies with him so SD decide to make their own versions in Poland and sell them direct. Oh well.

We have 5, £300 to anyone who wants them. Call me direct for the deal.

Thanks for the post John, I feel bad now as I can see exactly why you were charging what you were for them. Apologies for my previous post.

Great offer though, I will be in touch soon.

Thanks,

James

Oh dont worry I didnt take it personally and tbh i'm not overly surprised. Tuning/racing market is tough and it seems tough = be crappy to people for some people so I half expected it to some extent. It is very frustrating to do a deal and then it get turned around on you but no point crying about it, take the loss and move on.

if you buy the ac schnitzer rear brace from bmw and have them fit it, you will not void your warranty.

Doesn't brace onto the floor though, which is the whole point.

he wants a rear strut brace that will not void his warranty should he need to claim. ac schnitzer item increases rigidity and is fitted by bmw. good option imo.

dont quite know what you mean when you say it doesnt brace onto the floor though, it braces on top of the two rear suspension domes here

is this not the only place you can attach a rear strut brace to?

I think the SD one also fixes to the boot floor near the diff carryo points, better but more work and a risk when it cone to warranty work on rear subframe (although with this fitted I doubt any cracks will happen)
