BMW Strut Braces & Stress Bars

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.

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.

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.

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
2007-2013 E92 BMW 328i 328xi - Coupe
2007-2013 E93 BMW 328i - Convertible

These carbon fiber strut brace bars replace the stock E63 aluminum bars. The carbon fiber tube of the Dinan bar is stiffer than the mass-produced stamped aluminum factory bar. This will reduce chassis flex in the front end and improve steering response. The carbon fiber is beautifully finished in a durable clearcoat with anodized aluminum ends. These bars frame the engine compartment in carbon fiber and go great with other carbon fiber trim.
