These rear damper top mount plates are a proven upgrade for fast road, track day and drift builds, and an essential preventative measure on lowered cars or vehicles running uprated shocks and coilovers. Engineered for a direct fit to the factory mounting points, they add serious rigidity to the rear turret area to help prevent cracking and ovalising around the damper studs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \n  \u003cp\u003eUnlike the thin OE-style plates many owners have used in the past, this set is machined from robust steel and made a full 1 mm thicker than the commonly referenced Z3 plates. The result is a tougher, heavier duty solution with far greater resistance to flex. Finished in a smart matte black zinc plating, they offer excellent corrosion resistance and a discreet OEM-plus look once fitted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDirect-fit rear turret support plates for BMW 3 Series and Z cars\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e1 mm thicker than the typical Z3 reinforcement option for added strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCNC machined from sturdy steel for durability under hard use\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMatte black zinc finish for long-lasting protection against the elements\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eIdeal for lowered cars, uprated dampers, coilovers and spirited driving\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSimple bolt-on installation using factory mounting points\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSold as a pair\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \n  \u003cp\u003eWe have fitted these on our own builds and for many customers at MJ Modifications.

On E36, E46 and Z3 models the rear turret metal can be a known weak point, especially with stiffer suspension, sticky tyres and frequent hard driving. These reinforcement plates spread the load across a wider area, helping to prevent stress fractures and elongation around the damper studs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \n  \u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eSuitable for the following BMW applications:\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eBMW E30\u003c\/strong\u003e\n      \u003cul\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e318i M10 1.8\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e318i M42 1.8\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e318is M42 1.8\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e325, 325e, 325es M20 2.7\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e325i, 325is, 325ix M20 2.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eM3 S14 2.3\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eBMW E36\u003c\/strong\u003e\n      \u003cul\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e318i M42 1.8, 318i M44 1.9\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e318ic M42 1.8, 318ic M44 1.9\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e318is M42 1.8, 318is M44 1.9\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e318ti M42 1.8, 318ti M44 1.9\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e323ic, 323is M52 2.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e325i, 325ic, 325is M50 2.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e328i, 328ic, 328is M52 2.8\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eM3 S50 3.0, M3 S52 3.2\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eBMW E46\u003c\/strong\u003e\n      \u003cul\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e323Ci, 323i M52 2.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e325Ci, 325i, 325xi M54 2.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e328Ci, 328i M52 2.8\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e330Ci, 330i, 330xi M54 3.0\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eM3 S54 3.2\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eBMW Z3\u003c\/strong\u003e\n      \u003cul\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e1.9 M44 1.9\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e2.3 M52 2.5, 2.5 M52 2.5, 2.5i M54 2.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e2.8 M52 2.8, 3.0i M54 3.0\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eM Coupe S52 3.2, M Coupe S54 3.2\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eM Roadster S52 3.2, M Roadster S54 3.2\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eBMW Z4\u003c\/strong\u003e\n      \u003cul\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e3.0Si N52 3.0\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eM Coupe S54 3.2\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \n  \u003cp\u003eFor E46 Convertible models use ES2642686.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \n  \u003ch3\u003eFitting service\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eWant it installed by professionals who know BMW chassis inside out?
