OG M2 with M Performance coils adding M2C brace

CalAcacian · 03-15-2021, 04:54 PM

Hello Everyone,

I have a 2018 OG M2 with M performance coilovers installed. I am going to be installing the M2C carbon and aluminum braces.

Will these parts work together without an additional interface? i.e. the ground control camber plates

The strut towers are different. You need the M2C/M3/M4 strut towers that have the extra bolt pattern for the aluminium brace. Make sure you get right ones 3 bolt 5 bolt version as applicable to your year model. 2018 is 5 bolt.

Okay excellent, I do have that 3 bolt strut tower in the parts I purchased.

The strut tops (with the correct number of fixings to attach to the inner wings) are the only thing you're going to need. As mentioned, BeePee is your guy for details on doing this.

He can also advise on adding extra camber using genuine BMW parts.

Cal,

Have a read of this (long but very informative thread) - pg 12 has a post with comprehensive parts list to mull over.
