    Name this strut tower brace?

    I bought a parts car and it came with this brace, I can't find any markings on it, and I was just curious if anyone knew who made it? It's REALLY fucking beefy.

      It looks exactly like the BMP stress bar i had. I am 100% that is what it is.

          That looks just like an Ebay one my friend has. It is so flimsy that I bent one of the brackets that holds the cross bar a good inch, by leaning on it, while reaching over the engine.

          Kinda made me ponder its actual ability to stiffen the chassis.

                  That is an original BMP bar from early 1990's, or a rip off of the design.
                  The bar posted above by "Cramer" is a newer itteration that BMP sells.
                  Below the radar...
