Drop Hats.....

again: wat

You don't understand why someone would re-fabricate a major structural part of the car instead of getting shortened strut inserts????





I don't either.

[iamsam]

im going to fab up my own top hat area on the car itself and raise it up enough before it hits the hood. that means i won't have to bottom out my struts. or get top hats. i would be riding stock strut height.

You're going to fabricate a new strut tower? Is this a full race build? Your suspension geometry is going to be completely ruined. Not to mention, I question if you can duplicate the original strut towers strength...

i would like to know if you have put the e90 top hats in. i want to know if it works. and are you saying that if using the e90 top hats, i would get more strut so my struts don't bottom out?

Just the opposite. I put mine in, and now my shocks bottom out a lot. It never happened before. I'm running Bilstein Sports with H&R Sports. I'm going to go with H&R Races in an attempt to stop the problem.

But yes, they do work, as shown a few times in this thread.

Just ordered a set of these through Tischer BMW (getbmwparts.com), $20 for the set. Hopefully will get them on this weekend and post some before/after pics.

he was able to use his stock washer and removed his spring pads. he said it was about 10mm drop. he was happy

[e30e]

Why are you guys shitting on him for selling a product to customers who are willing to spend 100 bucks to lower 5mm, sure its not much but someone with a 40k car, 100 bucks aint shit.

[mamzak]

Yeah Richard I'm not sure who the fuck would buy your hats for an E90... They would be replacing OEM BMW parts for your no name hats to get a 3-5mm "drop?" Whoopity fuck.

[machined]

hahahaha

Alright, Maple-Leaf.

As for America... Fuck yeah, buddy. You should be thanking us for being between Canada and Mexico. Next?

you pretty much are mexico. the only thing differentiating you from mexico is a bunch of inbred white boys with the intellegence level of a pack mule.

take a look around bud. the whole world hates the stars and stripes. your "we rule the world" attitude spews ignorance. Canada is the last country you want to hate on because we are one of the last countries who tolerate you...and thats growing thinner by the day.
