Don't believe I seen this member on the forums however this looks like a pretty decent deal.

Great find, as some members are still looking to get this piece. Unfortunately for them that is a steep but decent price, as they are rarely for sale.

Is that the norm on price? How much were they new?

They were $1000 new, then awhile back they went on a fire sale for around $300 each. Then prices started creeping back up to $500-$600. Now you can't find them, so it's whatever the market will pay.

Understood. Wanted to say I thought about it for a half second.

$300 price would have been a steal then.

I'm telling you Vas, you don't find these strut bars for $400 shipped too often and as time goes by, these strut bars will become even more difficult to find. Pricing will go up as a result. There is already one person looking at this part so time is short....I was just passing this along to the 'family' so that someone here hopefully, would have the opportunity to get this nice part :thumbsup

As Dane put it so accurately, buy this part, sell your old strut bar and there's the cost offset. Pretty much what I did for my ///M. If I needed this part it would already be mine today.....:)

^ But no pressure, of course. :shifty

This mentality is why my ZHP ended up with performance rotors, ceramic pads, new suspension, performance intake, etc etc.

Im glad i have the 1 now, and you guys cant show me all this new cool stuff i really, really, need to buy :p

Wonder what my current strutbar is worth. I think it is the m3 strutbar that has M stamped on the endcaps.

If someone wants it, let me know, I'm local and can go get it, I was pursuing this one earlier in the week. Then another one popped up for $360 on e46f, it's costing me $375 shipped, I relayed this new market info to my local guy and it looks like he dropped his price.

I would give you $200.00 for it, if it's in good shape.

Then you'd be looking at around $200 + Shipping for the CF strut bar.

I had a feeling it would go quick at $400. This is why I posted an update here....

Anybody want to contact the seller and see if the potential buyer flakes?

Wait, an OEM c/f strut bar for $400????? Definitely see if the buyer flakes.
