These braces look like 1/4 of the convertible e93 /e88 /z4 braces( Specific to engine clearance lower into the engibe. So check first)
51617265285
51617258314
Since the convertible braces need a sub frame swap or a small custom mount, these are the next best thing. They attach from fender/strut area to the Crumple arms, they may need a bolt: 07119905147 and nut for the lower end 07119904670
The Driver side/Left may need a bolt in the bottom instead of a nut, my e82 doest have it...
EDIT:
Appears there is a bracket for the sub frame available for the early e93 that allows mounting of the V brace !!!!!

hi,
can you please confirm that this part 51617135640 fit e82 subframe?
Did you finally fit all the e88 reinforcements parts? Did you feel some increase in stiffness?
Any improvements or maybe deteriorations in NVH?
Thanks
