M7 Strut Tower Re-Inforcement Kit w/new nuts

Category: Suspension
Price: $100
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part fits (you may select multiples): R55, R56, R57, R58, R59
Location (Region): Midwestern
Item Condition: Used

I just installed a JCW Strut Tower Brace and had to remove the 2007-2013 M7 R56 Strut Re-Inforcement Kit ($ 149 retail) They are in excellent condition and come with new nuts from my JCW Strut Brace. I reused the old nuts.

In hindsight I should have bought the M7 Strut Brace which works with this kit. The M7 sticker is still in place. I'm selling them for $ 100 shipped in the 48 US States.

Hey tiger dude... Once again I realize you're new and I don't want you to hurt yourself so I'll let you in on a little secret.

Most people don't know this but the nuts that hold the strut mounts in the car are single use crush nuts and should not be reused. Also, last I looked the mount nuts that come with the JCW Strut Bar Brace are special in that they have a shoulder that works with the brackets. Don't sell them, you should use them. Let the buyer go buy new nuts from his local Mini Dealer for the M7 plates.

Just sayin!

Thanks for the advise, the nuts look the same as for the M7 kit so I reused them and they torqued fine. Live and Learn Thank You. I shipped them out at 8am, 18 minutes before your post, but I think I should be fine.
