The Carbon Fiber ECS strut tower bar kit offers more than just good looks - it also serves to protect strut towers from "mushrooming" or other deformation caused by rough roads or vehicles with stiff suspension and helps to triangulate the front end, providing more consistent suspension geometry with less chassis flex. Strut tower plates should sit flush against the strut towers. If this is not the case, your strut towers are to some extent deformed. This can be easily remedied in minor cases with a block of wood and a hammer. Carbon fiber is an excellent addition to any vehicle and offers a very unique look that is found on some of the most exotic vehicles on the road today. This strut bar kit features a clean woven design that is sure to look phenomenal for years to come and will compliment absolutely any engine bay. Don't settle for a boring stainless steel or aluminum strut bar, your BMW deserves the best. Features high gloss carbon fiber bar and black CNC machines tower plates with stainless steel hardware. Not for SULEV M56 engine models.
