BMW Strut Braces & Stress Bars

BMWs need some added chassis strengthening in the front. You may notice some "chassis flex" when cornering or driving over a bumpy road. The reason for this is the incredible amount of force being applied to front strut towers. They have a tendency to flex when force is applied to them. Tying the strut towers together with a brace reduces the amount of flex and soldifies your car's chassis. Easy installation.

The ECS Strut Tower Bar Kit in striking wrinkle black finish goes beyond aesthetics - it offers essential functionality. This kit significantly reduces chassis flex, contributing to a stiffer suspension setup. Moreover, it plays a crucial role in triangulating the front end, resulting in more consistent suspension geometry that enhances your vehicle's performance.

It's essential to ensure that the strut tower plates sit flush against the strut towers. Any misalignment may indicate minor deformations in your strut towers. However, this can be easily addressed using a block of wood and a hammer to reinstate the ideal alignment.

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.

This item fits the following BMWs:
2006-2011 E90 BMW 325i 325xi 328i 328xi 330i 330xi - Sedan
2007-2011 E91 BMW 325i 325xi 328i 328xi - Touring Wagon

While BMW did a beautiful job on the F9X X3/4M’s they sure decided to get cheap out on the strut bars. Ugly steel bars with no real pop or aesthetically pleasing qualities seem like an afterthought to such a well-thought-out car. Well, here at VTT we decided to do something about it, and immediately took our bars off, and let our engineers go to work on a solution. What they came up with is beautiful, and functional. 100% CNc machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and anodized in a variety of colors The result adds a gorgeous look to your X3/4M engine bay, and what BMW should have done from the factory.

BMW's G80 and G82 M cars are arguably two of the best-built BMW chassis to date, but it does have a few shortcomings. One of the first design weaknesses many people notice right away are the ugly, simplistic front strut brace bars. With the level of detail put into the rest of the M3 and M4, these plain steel bars seem like an afterthought. Vargas Turbo Technologies felt there was major room for improvement and set out to design a new brace kit that is aesthetically pleasing while retaining the strength and fitment of the OE bars. The result is a beautiful, functional 3 piece design with an interlinking "V" bar and center support bar. These Strut Braces are CNC machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and are anodized in Black, Red, or Clear.
