    Anone fitted a JCW strut brace to an R56?

    If so:
    1) Is it a DIY job &
    2) Is it a worthwhile mod?

    1) Yes
    2) No


    Feet were made to fit car pedals. If we were meant to walk, we'd have pogo sticks for legs

    It's not as good a strut brace as others, it flexes too much. All it braces is your credit card. It's under bonnet bling

    How about the M7 one. Cheaper but is it better? Even the same would be good.
