So I received my Turner Motorsport front strut brace today. Does anyone know what I should torque the strut bolts to? Also, those of you who have the TMS brace, did you adjust the length of the bar or leave it as received? I"m also assuming I should tighten the brace hardware (bolt with nylon lock nut). It comes very loose.

Upper adn Lower front Ultraracing strut tower brace fr f30
Hi
I've an F30 320i i've installed upper front Strut tower (Ultraracing)UR-TW2-3744 and I bought the lower front one UR-LA2-2543,, but the problem was that I have to remove the Underride protection (part number 31146850067) Does any one has a way around this?? Maybe one had cut through the underride protection ?!! Ah btw,,, the front upper strut tower brace really does a good job in holding up the front of the car,, I wish I can install the lower one without having to remove the shield, Thx |

But we were tired to try where exactly it won't fit ,, A friend of mine told me I should AutoCAD it and see where exactly it could be pinched , if any,,, I thought of contacting ultraracing They shouldve put this into consideration I've searched alot on the internet for a solution ,, found that some f30 thier underide shield is made of like fabric material ,, like the one that surrounds the wheels ,, so it could be pinched easily But here in Egypt roads have allot of bumps and holes ,, so a metal under shield is a must |

The rear lower brace does not look like it will do very much. It looks to be trying to prevent scissoring of the end of the rear axle carrier but there is already a solid strut nearby already doing that. The front brace and the strut bar look solid. How does it feel with all the bracing?
