The F80 M3 struct bar was stuck in my head ever since I saw someone on the forum retrofitted on their car so I spoke the local tuning shop owner who did my KW camber plate retrofit to get a possible solution in retrofitting the M3 struct bar on my car. Possibilities are everywhere. You just have to discover them, so we did it.
New camber plate fresh off from the CNC machine
Test fitting the struct bar on the camber plate with OEM BMW bolts. They look pretty good to me but not sure how it fits on the car.
It requires an additional bolt to secure the struct bar on the chassic so we make it work
bolting up one side and hopefully everything works fine
YAY ITS SUCCESFULLY INSTALLED
The car handles way better on sharp corner, understeering is def reduced. The whole chassic is much tighter and stiffer now. I did not the the carbon fiber part from the M3 struct bar due to its cost but I have the CPM front struct bar to get a better chassic reinforcement anyways. I would say the M3 struct bar gives at least 30% reinforcement to the chassic, I would suggest everyone to have it installed on their F3x.
