    FS: SME RACP X-Brace - Gloss Black

    Edit: SOLD

    I bought three of these wonderful pieces to save on shipping and, after installing one in mine and one in a mafia bro's car, I still have one left to sell. Comes with extended subframe bolts, hardware for attaching to the shock towers, and a drilling guide. Super easy install compared to more hidden options and adds some noticeable rigidity to the rear.

    $675 shipped in the CONUS or $625 picked up in Charlotte, NC. I can also install it if you want to bring me your whip.

    I never installed this one, but grabbed this pic when I first received them and test fitted each of them (they all fit perfectly):

    Fyi I'm removing the white SME brace from my coupe tonight, so will have another one for sale if anyone is in the market.

    As a general question- does a brace back there make a difference?

    in a coupe, i gotta believe it makes a sizeable one, yeah. the coupe has the least torsional rigidity of any solid-roofed E46.

    in terms of tying it into the RACP, that is going to make big difference as well.
