Poss group buy maybe??
 
if I am right, one of the guys here tried to insure his car with strut brace and his insurance company refused to do so, so he sold his brace. you might want to check with your insurance provider before purchase.
 
I was the forum member who decided not to fit the oem strutbrace as the insurance company(Admiral) would not insure the car so wasn't willing to take risk i sold it on for what i paid for it.
I bought it off ebay for £130,best to check with your company as some companies may be happy to insure :thumbsup:

When I declared my strut brace initially, Elephant (part of the Admiral group) wouldn't cover it after a phone call and one of their risk assessesors being consulted. The following year a different risk assessor was consulted and they insured it with no problem at a very good price, 19's and side skirts declared also. 2 years on and they're still insuring it at a good price.

Part of the problem is that most call centre workers don't know what a strut brace is and that it's not a major suspension modification. A-plan covered it with no issues but their prices shot up prompting me to move. I think they've become more competitive again though and a call to their Thatcham branch quoting the bmwland discount might be worthwhile if you're struggling to get cover.
 
Just got this back

Hello Rob,
 
Shipping for one set is U$118.50 by POST AIR to UK (insurance and tracking service covered).   Sorry for the import duty and tax you might check with the local custom dept we are not sure of its fees.
 
 
Minimum order 5 sets for U$220.00/set + shipping.
10 sets+ U$208.50/set + shipping
15 sets+ U$195.50/set +shipping
 
If group buy and shipping to an address then you distribute from the domestic or in Europe you can save lot of shipping fee from the combined shipping.  Hope it helps.
 
We value your business.   If you have any question or concern, please be sure to let us know.
 
Thanks,

Paul

I'm not a fan of the COSMO ones, they seem like something the Top Gear lot would make, just big slabs of Aluminium.

The main brace isn't too bad, it's the others. :thumbsdown:

Have you asked Strutbrace if they do any three part ones?
