    looking for "solid" motor mounts

    does anyone know who made the "solid" motor mount that BMP used to sell? they are alum with a urethane insert if i recall. i have them on my car and i was chasing a rattle when i found that the lower stud on the pass side was broken (craptacular!!) from the looks of the drivers side one it screws in with an allen wrench. i looked on the BMP online catalogue and i can't find them anymore and my old catalogue has gone MIA. i recall them being made or sold by someone else, i just can't remember who. i would like to get a pic of the mount off of the car if possible and see if the manufacture sells spare studs etc

      no, at least that's not what they had on the site. they are hourglass shaped, gold anodized, and i think they had a urethane insert through the center from the pics in the catalogue.

      any other ideas?

          Sounds like you are describing the Vorshlagg motor mounts.

                nope all alum outside with a urethane insert in the middle that you can't see unless they are off the car. the shape is close, stack 2 of them on top of each other and you have the "hour glass" shape. also they are gold anodized.
                they were discussed on here some time ago with a different manufacture then BMP. i remember saying "hey, those are the same mounts i have" when i saw the pictures in the thread.

                      e30s are like fat girls that USED to be hot, you just gotta work them out to make them hot again.

                          I used those for the engine and new oem tranny mounts. I have not had an issue with any "torn sheet matal", and I do drive this car hard.
