From the factory, all BMWs utilize soft rubber or fluid-filled engine mounts. Not only are these mounts prone to degradation, they also allow ample movement of the drivetrain. This translates to looseness in your driveline, commonly associated with missed shifts and a generally isolated feeling.
To improve upon this issue, Black Forest Industries designed these upgraded mounts from the ground up. Their stage one mounts feature a proprietary 65A durometer bushing and bracket/cup design. Maximizing bushing area while minimizing vibration gives this mount the advantage of having the best ride characteristics possible from a urethane mount.
Features:
Perfect fit: Utilizing laser-scanning technology permits seamless integration with the factory engine mount arms. Quality tooling: All bosses are matched replicas with stock locations, and all tool clearances and specs are maintained. Heavy-duty construction: The use of billet aluminum instead of cast creates a mount that is dramatically stronger than its factory cast-construction counterpart. Performance design: 65A durometer bushings are geared toward the spirited driving enthusiast who wants better control over motor movement without sacrificing excessive vibrations. Choose BFI Stage 1 for a quality mount that eliminates drivetrain movement without adding excessive NVH.

To improve upon this issue, Black Forest Industries designed these upgraded mounts from the ground up. Their stage one mounts feature a proprietary 85A durometer bushing and bracket/cup design. Maximizing bushing area while minimizing vibration gives this mount the advantage of having the best ride characteristics possible from a urethane mount.

Performance design: 85A durometer bushings are geared toward the spirited driving enthusiast who doesn't mind increasing NVH. Choose BFI Stage 2 for a quality mount that eliminates drivetrain movement.
Note: Stage 2 mounts increase NVH. Therefore, these mounts are not intended to be used on daily driven vehicles.
The engine mounting points on the E46 are stamped sheet metal. Due to this construction, they are notorious for cracking and ripping out over time.
This kit welds onto the front subframe preventing cracks and failure of the engine mounting points. All reinforcement plates are precision laser cut from 14 gauge steel.
This kit includes:
2x top position weld-in reinforcement plates 2x lower position weld-in reinforcement plates
