Has anyone tried this on a 135i?

I hope no one is dumb enough to buy some cheap Chinese knock off. IMO, Chinese-manufactured aftermarket auto parts = crap.

ACS has it listed on their site for our 2007+ E82. Not sure though since the picture above and on their site (same pic) show it on a NA motor. I am thinking our airbox will get in the way.

Loving the design that makes it super easy to add oil too.

i thinks thats the point of having the arm being a 3 piece design. so u can take off the middle portion to change the oil. still stupid design, but if it works

Weird design

Why is the design stupid? It's the best looking brace on the market, and it allows for easy oil access.

Have you seen the mason brace? ...and this is ugly?
