Description
Rogue Engineering Billet Aluminium V Brace E46 M3
An integral part on E46 M3 is the rear chassis "V-Brace" (BMW # 33-31-2-229-899) found on all 2001-06 Convertibles and Coupe (including the CSL). This brace attaches to the outward points of the rear chassis and to the area near the rear subframe carrier.
Since some of these vehicles are now over 20 years old, we have been seeing more and more of these start to rust away.
So Rogue Engineering now offer this upgrade replacement, details are : -
- Corrosion resistant, so it would not rust from the inside out, like the OEM version
- Fully CNC'd ACQ 6061-T6 aluminium assembly.
- Lighter weight, around 2kgs. fully assembled (vs. 3kgs for OEM), a 35% weight saving
- Anodized gray finish
- Modular design allows for one arm to be removed in case of exhaust removal requirement.
Included in the Kit are : -
Two (2) arms of the brace assembly (they are idential)
One (1) junction plate
One (1) red spacer (this goes BETWEEN the brace and the chassis!)
Two (2) blue spacers (these goes BETWEEN the brace and the chassis!)
Four (4), M10 socket head cap screws
Three (3), M10 flanged hex head bolts
NOTE: It is recommended that the holes used to mount the V-brace onto the car be cleaned before installation by running an M10x1.5 tap to clean each of the holes.
