Great value for the price. Painted the blue brackets red to match the rest of my engine bay. Looks fantastic. Tested it out by doubling the suggested speed on a couple turns. Felt like it helped but it could be placebo effect.

Wildly easy install - took longer to get it unpacked than to gather wrenches and install. Noticeable positive difference in handling (2016 Mz3sGT) - makes the steering even more precise and planted and cornering hard feels more controlled and even more fun than before. I can't believe this isn't stock gear on the s trim level. Thanks CS!

The bar performs as advertised and installed simply enough. It is designed with the hex nuts facing the firewall, which means you will need a short socket to squeeze in to tighten the hardware. Would be better to have the allen bolts facing the firewall in my opinion. The CS logo is also crooked on the bar, which bugs me a little each time I pop the hood.

Gives the car a much nicer feel on the onramps/twisties and makes a very noticeable improvement at the autocross track. 15 minute install - and that counts the 10 minutes looking for the right socket adaptor. Great product at a great price. Going to do the rear anti-sway bar before next season.

Super easy to install and noticeable difference . . . I immediately took vehicle to known areas I drive and have noticed bad roll at high speeds in the past. Can totally take those same turns at higher speeds than before with real improvement on roll. Cork only getting a 4 star because when I called to ask if I could have parts powder coated I was told no, but noticed another reviewer mention that this service was offered to him :(

Feels much more planted and flat around corners and cloverleaf on and off ramps can take them much more comfortably and while taking turns, had to shave down a bit to fit my 3, easy fix though.

Looks great and easy to install. No noticeable handling improvements however.
Aydan Corrigan
Super Easy install, noticed the difference right away, front end felt very planted to the pavement

Great item, easy & fast assembly, noticeable difference during cornering (tested before & after several times but might be slight or no differencefor casual drivers)

The CS strut bar should be your first mod. It's lightweight, easy to bolt on and gives a noticeable increase in handling. CorkSport was kind enough to get it powdercoated for me at a fair price and it looks fantastic.
