    WTB M3, Mason, or RE strut tower brace

    I'm looking for a track-worthy strut tower brace: no pivots, access to adjustable shocks. Seems like the best options are the OEM M3 brace, and the Mason/RE clones. Anyone know of a good used example of any of these for sale? I have cash in hand.

    Yes, I definitely have that one on my list. But before I buy new, I want to see if I can get better value on a quality used bar. No need for new hardware if I can find one that's been cared for.

    I just picked up the M3 OEM bar from the e46 thread above - $190 shipped. Seems to be about the going price for these things.

    That's a great deal, IMO.
