    What strut brace is this?

    This strut brace came on an E30 I bought. I'm wondering who makes it and whether it's decent. It almost looks garage fabricated....?

    It kind of looks like the Bavarian Autosport one.
    The grilles really distract you from the fact that someone took a sledgehammer to the front end.

        I had similiar lookin bar like 5 years ago, it sticker that said D&W, D&W is(was?) a big german suplier for tuning parts and sold many other brand products under the D&W name.

        My bar was aluminium and felt like a toy.

          Is it steel or alluminum? Looks like the bar mfg. by Mason Mfg. It has the indents for the nuts on top of the shock tower. One of his nice touches!!

              It looks like alluminum but I have yet to take it off so I don't know for sure...

                A very copied design, Hartge, BAV, D&W all have used this style.
