Done a quick search and got nothing, are any of you guys using these braces?

No. You intend to track or something ?

Have used them on another (non-BMW) car. Inexpensive and fit well, but tend to corrode in markets where salt is used in the winter (they're made in Malaysia).

I've had a set on order for my E92 for over eight months, but my UK supplier finds the Malaysian factory difficult to do business with. As I have an MSport which is fitted with quite good OEM bracing, I won't be that bothered if they never materialise...

I have it. Fit is okay, light and looks good but rusting allready. I will post pics when at computer

Any updates on if they improve handling?

Phil325i · 02-21-2013, 06:48 AM

It's now nearly a year since I ordered mine. Virtually given up on them ever appearing...

neilvosko · 02-21-2013, 08:59 PM

wow, it took me two months from malaysia.

i cant tell about the handling. i am sure it just helps the flex a bit more than stock POS>

i am getting secondary cats put in tomorrow to stop my white smoke from catless and will try to take a pic for you all.

here it is, sorry it took this long. the Ultra Racing Chassis Brace. I like the lower profile for the exhaust and 6 points of contact.
