Selling my Megan Racing aluminum strut bar for F30.

It’s in great condition. Used about 2 years. It does not snow here so no road salt or corrosion. It worked fine on my N26 car. Should be direct bolt on for N series engines and B48. For B58 engine cars you may have to cut or modify some engine bay plastic pieces to get it to fit.

Asking $80 picked up in San Francisco area. I can meet buyer in the SF bay area.

I can ship it as well but it will not be cheap due to the size and shape.

Bump, price lowered.

There is a plastic box on the driver side that you will need to cut a hole into to install. Please see this post:

Does it actually help with cornering?

You can look up the strut bar thread in the suspension subforum. The strut bar helps with body flex and stiffens the car. It is most noticeable when you go up a ramp at an angle, you sometimes hear the dash or interior creak. With the strut bar, it is rigid and doesn't do that.

Otherwise cornering at high suspension loads, you feel the front of the car flex less but you would need to be at the cornering limit to feel that.

It is a relatively inexpensive part and does help the car. I can see a triangular multipoint brace like that on the F80 M3 being much better for chassis flex but that requires a lot of work and costs much more.

Do you have a rough estimate of how much it would cost to ship to 23223?
