But the two point ones, I see that they still keep the OEM brace, as flimsy as it may be, so I was thinking that may negate the downside of not being a 3 point?

Trying to figure out if it's worth spending another $100 on top of a two point brace from RD, and the extra hassle it seems to be to install the M3 one...

Here's an RD installed pic closeup:



And the Cusco one doesn't seem bad actually, since it seems to install using more than one bolt (compared to the RD):

I got the M3 then went to bmw performance
