Description

BMW E36 Front Strut Tower Reinforcement, also for Compact

This E36 strut tower reinforcement keeps the front strut towers of your BMW E36 or E36 Compact intact. After years and hundreds of thousands of kilometres, this sheet metal cracks, especially on cars with stiff suspension or a busy life on track.

The reinforcements fit as an extra plate under the original strut tower, i.e. under the top mount of the shock absorber. No welding is required. They are laser-cut from 3 mm thick S355 steel, formed on CNC press brakes and then galvanised against rust.

A thin galvanised plate that stops your strut tower from cracking.

Why choose this E36 strut tower reinforcement?

A cracked strut tower means bodywork in the wheel arch and a car that is off the road. This reinforcement spreads the force of the shock absorber over a larger area and is quick to fit, without welding. The steel is galvanised, so it stays neat even on a car that is parked outside.
