**********s | CROSS Strut Bar | 1 Series!

Hey fellow Addicts,

We've got a new product that we're excited to release to you 1ers, the CROSS Strut Bar, available in a high polished aluminum or black carbon fiber.

This strut bar will reduce chassis flex to improve steering response by reducing cornering loads. CROSS strut tower brace bar reduces the amount of flex in the car's chassis by tying the shock towers together enhancing rigidity and strength. Each aluminum strut tower bar features a high polished, show-quality, shaft and rigid mounts. The front strut tower bar is very important because the car receives its steering response from the front suspension, that is where chassis flex is most noticeable.




If you would like to contact me personally, you can always drop me PM, e-mail me at Roger************.com, or give me a call here at **************.

Heres more eye candy!

Roger, what's the weave on these? It looks like 2x2, but I want to confirm before I would place an order.

+1

Also, it looks to be made of dry carbon. Is this true? Also, is it completely carbon fiber or does it have a fiberglass core?

It is not a dry carbon, there is a hard resin coating with no FRP core.

I'm considering this, that's for sure. The bar is cheaper than most, and definitely looks like a solid piece.

Hey **********s, I think it's only fair you show "vividracing" some respect and remove his personal picture.

Talk to me about the oil filler cap on the N54 engine:
  • Does the strut brace block it?
  • Does the strut brace change how you pour oil into the engine?
  • Anything else I should know?
Thanks,
Rick

Don't mean to jump on the bandwagon but it's pretty uncool to still be using another vendor's personal pics of the parts on the car in light of the fact that he asked you to remove them !!

I like how they managed to stick their watermark on it, but didn't manage to chop off vivid's logo properly
