    Got nothing but good things to say about Garagistic.

    I came in to them, with a last minute need. Broken front subframe need.
    Not only did they sell me the parts I needed but, they also sold me the subframe with all the reinforcements welded already, at a really good price might I add., granted I drove about 50 miles to get my parts.
    Would buy again without hesitation.

    Thanks again guys.

      I also had a mount pull off my front subframe. I already bought Garagistic's rear reinforced subframe, which I love, so I ordered the plates for the front. I welded them last weekend and will be reinstalling the subframe this coming weekend. As these cars age it seems apparent that most will need this upgrade, especially if the car sees any significant track time.

      Garagistic has been a pleasure to do business with so far. I'd recommend them to anyone.

        We make it easy so there is no excuse. If you can weld then here is the kit: http://store.garagistic.com/…/BMW-E3...rame-Reinfo…

        If you cant weld, or want a bolt up solution, then the subframe exchange program is for you:http://store.garagistic.com/o…/E30-r...front-subframe

        wow, you just answered my question on if I should get this upgrade for my stock setup e30!

        now to confirm with my mechanic that they can do the upgrade for me

        thanks again!
        If it's got tits or tires, it's gonna cost ya!

          Has anyone installed the complete kit on a stock e30? was there much difference in handling? I dont' track my e30, but I'm thinking that this kit will help in the structural integrity on my aging beast

          thanks in advance

            I'm on a stock m20 still, if that helps any.

              This is more of a preventative maintenance and safety upgrade.

                  Love how easy these were to do. Free plug suckas. One of my first times TIG welding and after a little grinding to shape and mill scale removal, badda bing.

                        Lots of reinforcement kits in stock. But we need people to send front sub frame cores back. We could use them!
