BMW Strut Braces & Stress Bars

Enhance your BMW's handling prowess with ECS Tuning's Carbon Fiber Strut Tower Bar. This lightweight and incredibly rigid strut bar kit braces the shock towers together, preventing flex and alignment changes during aggressive driving. Crafted from carbon fiber, it not only offers a lightweight solution but also adds an attractive touch to your engine bay.

• Prevents strut tower flex and alignment changes during aggressive driving
• Lightweight and rigid carbon fiber construction
• Adds a unique and stylish look to your engine bay
• High gloss carbon fiber bar with silver CNC machined tower plates and stainless steel hardware
• Not compatible with SULEV M56 engine models

A strut tower brace adds additional reinforcement to the front strut towers, tying them together for extra rigidity. This makes the whole structure stronger with less chassis flex. Handling and steering feel are improved with better turn-in and input with no downsides. The Dinan strut tower brace is a very high quality aluminum brace with precision machined ends that match the contours of the strut tower. Other braces simply sit on top which reduces their effectiveness. This is definitely one of the stronger strut brace designs on the market. The center bar is polished aluminum with carbon fiber inlays - an unmistakable sign of precise engineering when you open the hood.

For over 35 years, Dinan has been America's premier tuning company, pioneering advancements in BMW modification while retaining a focus on balanced performance that preserves the original character and driving feel that a BMW offers. When you install a Dinan part on your car, know that it's not only carefully developed and tested, but that Dinan stands behind it with a four year, 50,000-mile warranty. Dinan believes so fully in their “total package” approach that once your car has been fitted with enough of their parts, they celebrate your conversion from stock to Dinan with an exclusive trunk badge, displayed proudly by BMW enthusiasts everywhere. This part is worth 2 points towards your Dinan badge.

The polished aluminum ECS strut tower bar kit offers more than just good looks - it reduces chassis flex to stiffen the suspension, and helps to triangulate the front end, providing more consistent suspension geometry.

Strut tower plates should sit flush against the strut towers. If this is not the case, your strut towers are to some extent deformed. This can be easily remedied in minor cases with a block of wood and a hammer.

This carbon fiber strut brace uses a flat-oval design with a hinge-less mounting system that makes this one of the best strut braces on the market (especially at the price!). Cornering forces can put stress on the chassis, especially when used with stickier tires and stiffer suspensions.Strut braces help to reduce chassis flex by tying the two strut towers together. This design is stronger than most strut braces that use a hinge on the end that allows additonal flex. This design has fixed end mounts that the strut bar is bolted to. The slim oval tube is 100% carbon fiber for excellent strength and rigidty. The entire assembly is less than 5lbs and installs in minutes.

Fitment note: the end plates on this brace are closed. Some aftermarket front struts have an extra tall strut pin that will interfere with this brace.
