That's the same as the one on my car Rob. I'll check the old invoices to see if its there.
Ah, sorry - no receipt for that. Was fitted by a previous owner.
It does look very similar to the one which Ant had on his Z3. He did mention the make on one of his posts Rob. Might be worth a look?

same strut brace as mine as fitted to my 2.8 also same design as fitted to my 1.9, and got to say makes a world of difference to my 1.9... not really noticed the difference on my 2.8, but not driven my 2.8 on public roads until tomorrow YAY....!!!!!!!
Thanks chaps. Just trying to establish the pedigree before I decide whether to keep it or sell it.
They aren’t really my thing to be honest but you never now.

I remember seeing these on eBay a few years ago selling for around £120 I got the impression someone was making them.

Fitted one very similar and bought off eBay for about £80, to my M44. There is a difference but it's very small. Its also a little bit bling which isn't my thing. May well paint it black which would tone it down a bit. Wouldn't go out of my way to buy another.
I tracked down a photo of Ant's and it is the same. However he said he bought it second-hand and can't see mention of the make.
However this thread reveals it to be Automax. And @Lee 's recollection of £120 at the time was spot-on according to this. I guess if they made them now they might be £140-£150 worth with inflation.

Seems like a nice one. But I suspect I will decide to bank a bit of cash selling it for more pressing projects.
Shame it doesn't fit an E85 . . . . .

If you’re looking for one for the E85 send me a message
Looks the same as mine fitted to a 2.8. I have a feeling it may have been there since new.
It's an ASC Strut Brace. I fitted one to Z3lda.

Just bling
Noooooo. (But then again I have also fitted rear and longitudinal strut braces.)
