    Let's see the side by side, TBH I have some fitment issues with my Yurkan 6-point brace. I don't know how much of that might be due to the fact that my car has had a replacement RACP panel installed. But I'm going to have to bore out the holes a little and maybe get some spacers for the front 2 mounting points.

    I bought front strut bar and 6pt brace from them. Very good at communication and he even waived shipping for me. I have not installed them yet.

    That would be awesome if you could post pics. I really like how I would be able to reinforce the subframe and run the 6 point brace.

    That's the brace I am looking at getting as well. It is good to hear that there was no issues with fitment and quality.

    Wanted to check with the community to see if anyone here had any experiences buying or using any products from DS WORKS. They seem to produce alot of braces for the e36 and e46 cars. They are releasing a subframe reinforcement kit for the e46 similiar to the VinceBar, see link below:



    https://www.facebook.com/commerce/listing/1224467115199720/?media_id=1&ref=share_attachment





    The reason that this reinforcement kit interests me is because they are able to design there gusset cups to accommodate their 6 point subframe brace:

    The BMW e46 has an extremely light chassis. The opinion of our experts is that the chassis must be strengthened at a couple of key points. One of these is the reinforcement of the rear strut towers and the reinforcement of the rear axle and differential brackets. This is where the problem often occurs and the chassis breaks due to an increase in the torque of the modified engine or a higher load by modifying the suspension. We offer reinforcement of the rear part of the car of the assembly-disassembly type with binding in several points – from strut towers to the rear subframe mounts. This reinforcement can be made of high quality structural steel or Chromium molybdenum. The powdercoating isin the color of your choice. You get the kit needed for installation. The installation itself requires a couple of small modifications. It is necessary to replace the factory screws for hanging the frame with a longer one so that reinforcement can be placed on them. At the place where the longer screw must pass through the chassis and enter the trunk, it is necessary to drill a small hole. The factory foresaw this and a drilling site was marked. When the subframe bolts are installed, you have everything you need to install reinforcements in the trunk.


    Before I place an order wanted to get some feedback on their products if anyone has used the products before on their e46 m3.
